I have been doing my own services and repairs since I was a kid. 30 years of Ferraris, lots of Porsches and now Macca. I am not exactly low budget and it would be great to have a comprehensive tool...... but it has to make $ sense. Unless the car is an absolute POS, the enthusiast is going to use it a couple of times/year.

During my 2 year service, I needed to bleed the brakes, but one needs the tool to do it properly. I let the dealer do it. I think I paid $350. I would have loved to DIY...... not so much for the $ saved, but working on these is part of the hobby for me. $2K+$600/yr just doesn't make sense for the use I would get.

If someone puts together a comprehensive tool that they can sell for $500-$1000 and no ongoing fee BS, they would sell a bunch and corner the market.
bleeding brakes is just like any other car. nothing to actuate in the brake system.

you all keep running around with this diag code thing. golden motors has been steadfast in their pricing strategy pretty much from day 1 and his last posting is a reminder on what they think of this community.
either completely ignore it's existence with possible price change through attrition and stop reviving this thread or fork up the $$ and move on.
