AUTEL IS RELEASING THE NEW MAXISYS AND MAXISYS MINI. I HOPE AUTEL HAS FIXED ALOT OF THE SOFTWARE ISSUES THAT THE MAXIDAS DS708 HAS HAD IN THE PAST. I FEEL THAT IF AUTEL HAS NOT FIXED THEIR SOFTWARE ISSUES THE SALES OF THEIR NEW MAXISYS WILL FAIL! ALOT OF AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIANS HERE IN THE U.S MAKE FUN OF THE MAXIDAS DS708 AND IT'S INABILITY TO PERFORM ALL OF THE FUNCTIONS AUTEL CLAIMS IT CAN DO. IF AUTEL CAN FIX AT LEAST 90-95% OF THEIR SOFTWARE PROBLEMS THE SALES OF THEIR NEW SCAN TOOLS COULD BE GREAT. I JUST HOPE THAT IF AUTEL HAS FIXED THEIR SOFTWARE IT WILL ALSO BE AVAILABLE FOR THE DS708 NOT JUST THE NEW MAXISYS. ALSO THE PRICE OF $799 U.S DOLLARS TO UPDATE IS WAY TOO MUCH. YOU CAN BUY A NEW DS708 FOR $1200 NEW. I HOPE THIS PRICE WILL CHANGE AS WELL.

 YOU SAY THAT AUTEL HAS IMPROVED THE NEW MODELS BUT WHAT ABOUT THE DS708? WILL THE NEW SOFTWARE UPDATES BE AVAILABLE FOR THE DS708. ALOT OF TECHNICIANS HERE IN THE U.S ARE NOT GOING TO BUY A NEW SCAN TOOL FROM AUTEL IF THE SOFTWARE PROBLEMS ARE NOT FIXED FOR THE DS708 AS WELL. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE GRAPHING PROBLEM CANT BE FIXED IN THE DS708 BUT IT HAS ALOT OF FUNCTIONS THAT ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND ALOT OF MIS-SPELLED WORDS AS WELL AS MIS-LEADING PID INFORMATION SUCH AS COOLANT TEMPS READING 900 DEGREES, INJECTOR BALANCE TESTS ON GM VEHICLES THAT WHEN USED IT SHUTS THE ENGINE OFF, UNABLE TO PERFORM BCM REGISTRATION ON SOME GM VEHICLES, ALOT OF CHRYSLER BI-DIRECTIONAL CONTROLS DO NOT WORK. YES I HAVE DATA LOGGED THE PROBLEMS AND SENT THEM TO AUTEL WITH NO REPLIES AND AUTEL HAS NOT RELEASED ANY NEW UPDATES FOR THE DS708 IN OVER A MONTH! SO AGAIN IF AUTEL CANT FIX SOFTWARE PROBLEMS IN THE DS 708 WHY WOULD ANYONE BUY A NEW SCAN TOOL FOR MORE MONEY WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS!
