had a visit yesterday off trading standards along with 2 gentlemen from auto diagnose, it seems there are a lot of copys of the disc being offered for sale locally and they wanted to know what i was using. at £850 a year for a genuine disc or £30- £40 a lifetime for a copy its easy to see why the copys are selling like hot cakes and throwing a spanner in the works for auto diagnose but be warned if anybody out there is using a copy and you get caught the jobby WILL hit the fan.
they may be in my area now but they might be in your area next.

A real copy I take it?

not a copy disc i can assure you. the book is only £50 and none of the books /discs give you a time for welding a rusty floorpan in a mk2 escort or fitting a weld in cage to a honda civic which is the type of things most of my work consists of.

Damn, £30 is expensive!! I've been offered it for £15!

What it is auto diagnose?

It's a massively overpriced piece of software for mechanics that gives them all the information about car specs and information.

Personally, for a system like that, I prefer Alldata.



Essentially though Ammo, it's like Google searching "how do I do .... on .... car?"

I know a few people round my way that use copy autodata, me included lol

it gives you repair times for jobs, service schedules, timing belt intervals, known faults etc
