    I tried a harbor freight scantool (the best one) and that disappointment is getting returned tomorrow.

    Anyone found a good combination of bluetooth dongle and an app like Torque for the iphone     which gives really good capability to pull codes and stream data from a gen 3 (2011) Prius?

    Things like the fuel pressure, for instance.

    Until now I’ve been taking a Snapon scanner home from work to repair my own vehicles, but that’s not an option, and I want good capability at home.

    You can buy the autel last model I wanna say the model 6 for very inexpensive 170 or so . As far as I know this has most of the capability of Toyota system and break bleeding and all that I'm sure there is something but I don't know what it is being able to communicate with the car completely and bleeding the brakes pretty much is enough for me I do believe.
