Looks for a code reader that will work on my Rapide and other cars too. Any suggestions?

 

Foxwell NT530. You can get it on eBay direct from the MFG.

 

+1 Works well with my 06 DB9.

 

Just ordered a Foxwell NT530. Thanks @bavarianstance @AM4884

What does "Expandable up to 5 car brands" mean in the production description?

 

I use the Foxwell 624.

 

The NT530 can hold multiple programs for different makes at the same time. Currently I have Aston Martin and JLR on mine and it’s just a matter of connecting to the car and running the right program.

 

this is correct... the base price includes one brand selection.
it's very versatile

 

Just wanted to let people know that if you want a scanner mostly for misfire troubleshooting then you don't need a model specific scanner like what Foxwell sells. You're wasting your money (and unnecessarily supporting a Chinese company). You can see individual misfire counts with standard OBD2.

 

Hi,
I find that my NT530 with Aston option has selection for ASM clutch bleed and reset engagement statistic. (Vantage 2006~)
I haven't activated it but if it really works it saves a trip or tow to dealership when ASM engage counter reach the clutch wear limit and disable the car (or so I heard).
You will still eventually need new clutch though.

 

AMDS...
