AutoEnginuity...your thoughts?

What's everyone's opinion on AE? What do you like about it and what doesn't it do that you wish it would? I have an 01 F250 7.3, an 05 F250 V10, and an 02 Escape 3.0L, will it work on all these? Does it deal with alll modules like ABS etc? I do have access to IDS at the dealer but it's a pain to go there to use it, as I prefer to work at home. Who has the best price on it? (PMs welcome.. :toast

it'll be the best bang for the money..

we have the Ford IDS, SnapOn & Matco diagn scan tools, as well as about 6 laptops with the AE installed.

It really is a nice software for the money you'll be spending. The tech support is top notch as well if you do run into some troubles. I recently updated to the latest version of the software and firmware and I'm having some connectivity issues, but I'm sure I'm doing something wrong on my end :doh:

The only thing that would make it better is a vehicle specific manuals or even MFG specific manuals

it's definitely a learning curve trying to figure out all the modules and test and some test require user inputs like break peddle/ overdrive button etc

but since you are familiar with the IDS I imagine you will be familiar with most of them
