Carly OBD2 Universal Professional Diagnostic Scanner with Coding Function is a modern wireless adapter designed for comprehensive diagnostics, reading and resetting error codes, as well as coding parameters for a wide range of car brands. The Carly scanner is not just a tool for reading fault codes, but a powerful instrument for deep analysis of a vehicle's electronic systems, checking real mileage, and customizing individual features according to the owner's needs.
Key Features of the Carly OBD2 Scanner:
- Complete diagnostics of all electronic control units (ECUs): Engine (ECU), automatic transmission (AT), anti-lock braking system (ABS), stability control (DSC, ESP), airbags (Airbag), climate control, multimedia system, and many more.
- Error code interpretation: All fault codes are displayed not as numbers but with detailed textual descriptions in English, making diagnostics understandable even for beginners.
- Coding (coding/parameter adaptation) function: After activating the paid subscription in the Carly app, the user gains access to changing hundreds of vehicle parameters. The app automatically identifies available functions for the specific model and year, provides a detailed description of each setting, and creates a backup before any changes are made.
- Real mileage and VIN verification: The scanner reads mileage stored in various electronic control units (ECU, ABS, Airbag). Comparing these values helps identify discrepancies and potential odometer tampering. It also checks the VIN code match across the main units.
- Service and maintenance monitoring: Displays data on service intervals, remaining life of engine oil, brake pads, diesel particulate filter (DPF), spark plugs, air filters. Ability to reset service indicators.
- Adaptation and registration of new components: Registering a new battery, forced regeneration of the diesel particulate filter (DPF) and catalytic converter (NOx), manual checking of automatic transmission adaptations.
Supported Car Brands and Models: The Carly scanner is compatible with vehicles from BMW, Mini, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda, Seat, Toyota, Lexus, Renault, Porsche. Diagnostics and coding are possible for models starting from 1996-2001 up to this year. The exact list of supported functions depends on the specific model, year, and installed equipment.

Working with Mileage and Service Data: Carly provides a unique opportunity to conduct a detailed vehicle inspection before purchase. You can see not only the current mileage on the dashboard but also the mileage recorded in key control units, helping to identify odometer rollback. Analysis of service reset history and remaining life of consumables allows you to assess how conscientiously the previous owner maintained the vehicle.
