XTOOL D5S OBD2 Scanner Code Reader 2025 for Cars and Trucks with 15 Reset Functions, Crank Sensor Relearn, FCA AutoAuth, CAN FD for GM, ABS Engine SRS Transmission Tool

The XTOOL D5S is the kind of scanner every guy should have in his garage. It’s fast, accurate, and feels like a legit piece of equipment, not one of those cheap plastic toys. The interface is clean, the touchscreen responds instantly, and the 16 reset functions actually work — no fluff. I’ve used it on multiple vehicles now, and it pulls codes quick, gives clear explanations, and lets me handle resets without running to a shop. The build quality is solid, the cable connections feel secure, and the whole unit has that “I can trust this” vibe. If you want a scanner that saves time, saves money, and makes you look like you know exactly what you’re doing under the hood, this one delivers.

Good product for scanning car

Update: I’ve been able to use this scanner a bit now and it has impressed me quite a bit. The screen is clear and bright, touch controls are responsive and navigating menus is a breeze. Outside of Amazon sending me a used and returned unit it has performed flawlessly. It pulls up codes pretty quickly, though it takes a bit to scan through the different modules, and the live data is butter smooth and updates very quickly. This scanner easily rivals my old Snap-On scanner, the Solus Pro, which cost thousands of dollars when I bought it about 10 years ago. So why buy this scanner if I have a pro grade scanner? Pretty simple: rechargeable battery, smaller and more compact size, and free updates! Honestly, I’m very satisfied with this scanner. It’s updated twice in the past week and they haven’t cost me a dime. Good luck getting that kind of service with something like my Solus Pro. Those updates still cost hundreds of dollars. Another reason I like this scanner? Customer service. An XTOOL rep saw my initial review and reached out to me about it. We have gone back and forth a bit in the past week and they are going to try to make it right even though it was a failing on Amazons part. Where are you getting this kind of service anywhere else? As a former career mechanic, I highly recommend this scanner or any of their other scanners. You should also know that this scanner will recharge off of the vehicles OBD2 port while it’s plugged in, so you don’t have to worry about the battery dying as you’re diagnosing the vehicle or having an extra charging cable running to the scanner. That’s fantastic for viewing live data as someone else drives the vehicle. Initial review: I received a previously used scanner. It was registered to Herman, though he was probably not the Munster. I also have their WiFi network information and everything else they put into this scanner. I’m not sure why they returned it after using it on 2-28-25 on an Infiniti, but they did. While I am marking this review at 3 stars, I understand that it is unlikely an issue with the seller. I did delete the previous user and then updated the scanner, it took a while since it needed a system update and 41 module updates, but it went pretty quickly. You should know that in the “update” menu there is an update all button, but it is only labeled “updates”. I had started to update them individually before I pressed it, not knowing what it would do. Did you expect me to read the instructions? I’m not sure if I should return this or just complain to Amazon or the seller, see what they know about this, but I do need a scanner and so far this is pretty quick to navigate the different menus and should perform well. So far I haven’t used it, but I will at least give it a shot before I do anything else. It does seem well made.

Not supporting tata cars

High capability touch screen scanner for the price Can display live real time sensor data you can view while the vehicle is running, which included numerous sensors and ECM inputs and outputs that I was not expecting. The screen layout / navigation is a little odd and has redundant options. The power on, shutdown and update options are inconvenient every time I use it. But that's minor stuff. it was still very worth it for the diagnostics and repairs I have done with it.
