For my GM vehicles, i uses the VXDiag Nano with MDI and GDS2 Software, for others i use the Launch X431. I also use the FSM's and Alldata depending on the vehicle, its one thing to have a great scan tool but you also need the information to use it with.

If you just want a scan tool to read CEL codes, you can get an ODB port blue tooth transceiver on Amazon for $15-20 and a program like Torque on your phone.

I use a Cen-Tech tool from Harbor Freight. Previously had a more expensive one back in the early-mid 00s (orange colored, I think it was Actron) that stopped working after a few years. I contacted the manufacturer and they were less than helpful, so I opted for a cheap Harbor Freight replacement(s) moving forward.
