I am looking for a diagnostic tool for my car. Can anyone suggest a good diagnostic tool? Anyone has any review on the iCarsoft MB V1.0 if it is good for my model?

No use whatsoever for your car unfortunately.
First thing - do you have the 38 pin connector or the 14/16 pin connector?

Only option I've found is a Chinese Star clones or Carsoft (not iCarsoft). Both are laptop based systems.

Are the Chinese Star Clones reliable?

Mines been ok.
Can you point to me your seller of the Chinese Star clones? I read a couple of reviews that the Chinese clones did not work. How much did it cost you? Is it user friendly?
