The tool is upgradable and its free (as far as i know). This is a FANTASTIC code scanner. the best one i've had so far, and i've had a few. I bought it specifically to read ABS and Air Bag codes, and its done that flawlessly on all my GM and toyota's. I highly recommend it for the money. No question. I did the research before i bought it, and its well worth it. Its re-badged from Actron, but i think it sells for the best price on Amazon.

Yes, you can update the scan tool without extra charges. In order to get your scan tool updated, you will need to download the Scanning Suite software from the OTC website, link the scanner to your pc via USB connection (included with the tool) and then follow the displayed instructions.

I bought this to reset an airbag on a 2012 ford focus and while this model wasn't supported, I was able to reset the airbag. I contacted the Manufacture and they stated that it was upgradable, but they don't push out updates very quickly for this model. Updates trickle down from more expensive models. So you might have to wait for a while for the latest update. I have been happy with the Scan tool.

I do not understand your upgradable question. It is updated through the OTC web site. It does not take long for ir to be updated.

No, it doesn't include free updates. I believe the updates are in the $100 range.

Hi Hi Karen, I own one of these and mine did not come with the tool I bought one separately

Yes. I would not purchase without that major improvement. A less expensive one is also listed without the slide cutter so be careful when you order.

Yes, it is possible. While I am pleased with the quality of the tool, it is more of a back up. Plus, cannot say everything you neen would be on the tool.

I do remember seeing it can be upgraded when I bought it but I am not sure how much more!

No, there are no additional fees that I am aware of. I have been using my TripMaker 7710 for the past year without any other fees.

I Don't Believe So Everything Is Upgraded. It Works Better Then The Other One Ever Did.

I got them together and dont remember having had to make an extra payment for the software, so i guess the short answer is no but in the other hand is not bad news because it comes included, meaning there is no extra charge. best.

Nope, I think you can order the custom inserts for certain tools. I don't remember exactly. But the tools are not included.

Yes you just have to check with the seller which one it is. They usually want extra for the sheath upgrade.

No, at least when you buy it. I haven't had to update it yet so there could be a fee.

Hi Ted, Not sure on this one. In the past there has been upgrade pricing, however I have not seen it on the last release. I think Microsoft is slowly adopting a just pay the price policy. I used to wait and buy the older version when the next one was coming out to just pay the upgrade price, but I think they have caught on! John
