I've used this one on several cars of mine. It's cheap and does what I need it to do.

Nothing that I know of. I like the BT version because when I go out on track, I can connect it and log my throttle position/rpm/and other telemetry to output into a CSV file. That wouldn't be possible with the cable version since it would be just a little dangerous with wires flailing about.

Recently, I found myself in the same situation where I needed to pick up my own OBD2 scan tool after borrowing one from a friend. With so many options out there, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one. After doing some research, I decided to try out what I believe is the best OBD2 scanner for Jeep Wrangler. It's been a game-changer for me, offering a good balance between affordability and functionality. In my opinion, brands like Autel, Innova, and BlueDriver also offer excellent options that capture all the relevant engine codes without the hefty price tag. They're available on Amazon and other online sources, making them convenient to purchase.

I've been using BlueDriver and OBDLink MX+ for years. The BlueDriver gives way more detail when something is wrong. The MX+ can read and write with forscan.

One company I cannot recommend: Autel.
Last Fall, I'd bought one of their units. It was received fine. Appeared to function well. I updated any software I could and stowed it in the toolbox.
I'd failed at that time to actually test it on a vehicle.
I've since discovered Autel does not update their software often. For example, when hocking up to my car, the model year reads, "2012".
It's a tick off. Owners of other makes have reported similar experiences. I've since confirmed that, while Autel updates things occasionally, it's often only when major revisions are needed.
The unit I bought does work, talks to the car and I can execute any feature or test displayed.
Makers of these products need to update hundreds or more features for all the vendors supported. I can appreciate that. The Autel unit is doing what I needed it to do and I'll continue with software updates.
If you need something specific to the Mustang, it's best to look elsewhere. And for the vendors you are considering, e-mail them prior to purchase, asking when is the last time they updated software for the make and model of interest.
