I am looking to buy a Bluetooth OBDll scanner for my 2000 Honda CRV. I am looking at the Bluedriver and Fixed. What would you recommend? I love watching your YouTube channel, keep up the good work.
I would like to be able to read the engine codes, turn off the check engine light, and any other uses a beginner mechanic would need. I have very little experience with cars. I did work as a mechanic for 6 months before I moved out of States. I did oil changes and tires primarily, but I would love to do more. I have also changed spark plugs, distributor cap and roster, and an alternator on my one. I am not sure if I can get fuel reports like how much MPG I get. I am still new to using I'll scan tools.
What are your expectations from the scanner?

+1 for blue driver.
But even better, click the “tools” link at the top of the page.
Well I believe that the bluedriver is in Scottys recommended tool list. I've got one and like it. Pretty easy to use. I can export the data/reports and print them. It fits easily into any storage compartment in my vehicles so I can plug it in at any time. I have never used the Fixed, but their commercials make me feel like it's one of those "as seen on TV" things that rarely deliver.
