    Does anyone have experience using XTool D7 or D8 to do vehicle maintenance on a 2024 Prius Prime XSE car ?
    Any comments on XTool D7 use ?

    I believe the Car Care Nut did a video about the Xtool.
    Link:


    It's about 2 years old and no clue how well it'd work with the Gen 5. I tried looking at what it covers on their website for Gen 5 and didn't seem much but they should roll out updates. I was considering getting one when the bumper warranty runs out but don't know of anyone who uses it yet. You can be our first!

    2 years ago the car nut posted thie video, D8 scanner (newer version of the D7)




    3 years ago the car nut posted the video, D7 scanner.


    Both videos are old news. But still of interest to me.
    There is now are now D8S and a D9 pro models.

    I have an Xtool D7S that works great on our Hyundai Sonata. Used it to fix a Steering Angle Sensor ( SAS ) issue.

    I haven't tried it yet on the Prius. However, I have no doubt that it would work well. The D7S is a great, and well supported, unit. Customer service is also reported to be very prompt as well.

    BTW - All Xtool units are Android tablets with software built on top. All updates, etc...are done over wifi. My unit had over 200 updates to apply when I first booted it up!

    I have an Xtool D8S, but I haven't gotten around to trying to do an ABS brake bleed procedure using it yet.

    I want to try it on our 2010 Camry 3.5L V6 first before trying it on our 2011 Prius hatchback and then on our 2016 Corolla.

    SM-G781V ?
