ODB Scanners

Anyone recommend one? I don't think paying $200+ makes sense for me as I only really have 2 cars and nothing is wrong with the Audi.. Just trying to figure out if it's even worth it to get one. I do get the check engine light on occasionally. Then it goes away and comes back a day later or even later that day.

Thoughts?

This one has done the job for me and it's around $100 on Amazon. Besides reading tripped codes, it's intuitive for code deletion (when applicable).

EDIT: Hmm. Link doesnt seem to be working but its an OBDLinkMX+

I like this paired with torque on my phone. Admittedly I don't have my Emira to test it on yet but it works with all the other cars I have.

I also use OBDLinkMX+ with Torque App. No issues.

Appreciate it.. $140 isn't too bad, but for what I might use it for not sure spending that much makes sense.. The occasional issue but might be something that makes sense long term.

Just wondering what this does that other cheaper (under $75) ones do that I might need..

Thanks for all the comments.
