Question for the techs and enthusiasts.
Do you have a scanner/obd2 tool? What do you recommend for the newer 2011 and up cars?

I just recently purchased Autel Autolink AL319 OBD2 CAN OBDII Auto Car Code Reader Diagnostic Scanner Tool for Mercedes-Benz and other vehicles. I do also have Creator for other vehicle.
I had to purchase the Autel to clear the Codes after doing Magnet for Cam timing, and Thermostat (W204). It just does basic stuff. Read and clear codes. Not bad for $28.

I am fairly sure it will work, but see compatibility of this and other model for Audi.
I would also see what Audiworld/Audiforum/Audizine recommends.

For the Audi, you need to get a VAG-COM setup.
