[Jeff J]

Hi
What fault code reader and resetting tools are being bought
for the R53 Cooper S ?
Thanks in advance for your replies

Work out what you want to do. Got a unit from Ebay for £30 and reads basic codes and resets all faults. But there is a lot more info to be had and a lot more to pay. Some of the laptop systems are good value and offer a lot more options.

I need to read and reset fault codes after carrying out any repairs, I'm looking at spending £200

7 quid off e bay a blue tooth obd unit and a free android app can reset codes on most cars very handy.

Any links to the one you refer to?

I have just done an oil service and want to reset that and remove the usual air bag light.

You won't be able to reset the airbag light without a B200 tool like this one.

Everything else can be cleared with a cheap eBay OBDII reader. Scangauge is quite good if you want live information and to be able to clear fault codes.

Service intervals are reset using these instructions.

Autel MD 701 702 704 DS is something I was looking at
