Thanks Jay. I'll take a look at the scantool(s) sold by Mac-Tool. Sounds like it might be a better reader. Do you recall which Innova model you had? I saw a few comments from users who had upgraded to the 3150/3160 Innova's and mentioned they were getting more information over prior models.
TCO, one of the requirements in my original post was $160 - $200. I'll bet I would just love the Solus @ $2k. Are you saying get Auto Tap and use it with the ElmScan 5 Compact?
Thanks for the info Gorecki. That helps a lot. It certainly has some drawbacks in requiring a computer, but for the price... I have an older laptop I could use if it isn't too slow. Does the "free software" include ABS? If not, have you found ABS scanning software? What price? ABS was one of the features I would be getting with the Innova 3150/3160 over the 3130 model.
