GM TECH2 Customer Feedback:
Good product with that amount of money, I tried on my Holden and it's work like original , really recommended
I've used the scanner on a 2001 Saab 9-3 and 2004 Saab 9-3 and it works as its supposed to. Thank you.
Tech2 works. I ended up using my own TIS2000 and it worked right away. make sure you are familiar with the cpu and cables and adaptors you will need. I use it for Saab and it's good.
