Code Scanners

[phrozeinglass]

I am looking to get a code scanner for my '05 Pathfinder... Does anyone own one or could give me a good recommendation for one?



Thanks!

Are you looking just for your Pathfinder? What else do you want it to do? Reason I ask, you can buy a programer like a bully dog... http://www.bullydog.com/product.php?ID= ... del=NISSAN PATHFINDER

Which will allow you to do more than just read codes. You can find them less expensive on Amazon.com and such.

However if you want to be able to use it in other vehicles you would be better off with a universal reader that you could buy from a parts store or such. I actually have one of these and it works great. However I'm also looking into the bully dog for my pathfinder.

It all depends on what capabilities you want. If you only want something to read and erase OBD II "P-codes," then Walmart sells one for around $65 that works fine. If you want something to read freeze frame data or datastream data, then it'l be considerably more.

I've found my $50 scan tool from Advance to be good enough for my needs. I've only used it twice but it's already paid for itself.
