Hi,
I'm want to get an OBDII Code reader for my car and I cannot choose between Actron CP9135 and Equus 3100. It seems that the Actron CP9135 display the DTC code with its description while the Equus only display the code and then you have to look in the manual for the meaning. On the other hand, the Equus 3100 can display both generic (P0) and manufacturer specific (P1) codes (I believe the Actron CP9135 only gives the P0 codes but I'm not sure about that. Do you know?).
Both unit are around 100$ on Ebay.
Which one do you think is better in term of capabilities, which one have the biggest code database, which one is compatible with a higher number of vehicle (I think Equus is not compatible with vehicles using CAN protocol but I don't know about the Actron)?
Thanks
