Autel MaxiSYS MS906 Using Experience

The Autel MaxiSys MS906 has so many features that some are bound to be extremely useful. It has Smart AutoVIN which will detect the VIN number from your car’s ECU most of the time

I’ve been looking for a replacement scan tool for a while now, and came across the Autel MS906 Scan Tool online recently.

To be honest, I haven’t heard much about this model but I know another shop owner nearby that has the Autel DS708 Autel Scanner, and he has nothing but good things to say about it.

This is apparently their latest and greatest model to replace the DS708, which is slower due to being Windows-based, has a slightly smaller screen with worse resolution, and a limited range of manufacturers it can access.

So, after much research, I took the plunge and bought it online.

Here’s my background.

I’m a small auto repair shop owner in Denver, Colorado.

I’ve been a hands-on technician for over 10 years and have dealt with pretty much every auto repair scenario you can think of.

I have five techs that work with me. We work on all makes and models, and most of my customers have cars less than 10 years old.

I needed a Obd2 scanner that was capable of performing every aspect of the job, no matter what make my customer has.

From the description, it looked like the Maxisys MS906 Scanner could do just that.
