You do know that Autozone or similar will scan your car for free, right?

Re: Buying A code Reader
In California, shops (or parts stores like Autozone) are no longer allowed to loan a code reader, because some a$$wipe got ripped off for unneeded parts by a shop, sued, and got a Court Injunction.harofreak00 wrote:You do know that Autozone or similar will scan your car for free, right?
I know the OP's not in CA, just thought I'd share another stupid Californism.

Re: Buying A code Reader
They don't really loan them here, they just come out to your car and scan the code. They will always reset it for me if I ask (back before I had my Aeroforce)
