Has anyone bought a Autel AP200 code reader via Aliexpress/China?

    EDIT: I removed the link because I didn't want anyone to fall for the false-advertisment like I almost did.

    Went back and really looked at the ad, if you search "Autel AP200" in Aliexpress it comes up for a much lower price HOWEVER what they are misleading you with is the price for the CABLE ONLY!!! The actual Autel code reader is $50+


    AGAIN!!! DONT FALL FOR THIS MISLEADING ALIEXPRESS AD!!!

    I think the XTool A30M might be my choice for bidirectional and for Prius brake bleeding, although I have not tried it.

    I think the Autel can do that. It was much cheaper so I guess we'll see.
