Product details
Update - October 2024: We are now supplying NT530 Plus units.
Coverage and costs are unchanged, but the Plus tools are Wi-Fi enabled, so no longer require a Windows PC to register
and install software updates!
The Foxwell NT530 is the successor to the hugely popular NT520 Pro and NT510 Pro, but is based upon a new platform for
faster performance and easier updates. It is a low-cost handheld scan tool that offers
comprehensive coverage for a single car manufacturer - ideal for specialist garages and car enthusiasts.
Designed for Mercedes and Smart cars from around 2001 onwards (models with a 16-pin OBD-II
type diagnostic socket), this scan tool allows the user
to read and clear the Diagnostic Trouble Codes of all electronically controlled systems, and to reset oil and service
lights, plus many more advanced features such as bi-directional component actuations and module coding -
usually only seen in high-end professional tools such as the GT90.
This scan tool will also read and erase engine fault codes and show live engine data on EOBD compliant cars (nearly
all 2001+ petrol cars and 2004+ diesel cars, from any car manufacturer).

The tool comes with a micro USB reader and very easy to follow instructions to get you up and running quickly. There is even a video to guide you through set up.
Mine arrived by 10 am and I had registered, checked I had the latest software and found the fault on the car before lunch. Trust me, I am not the kind of person who pulls his tool out and sticks it in....let me rephrase that. I like to take my time and make sure I am doing it right.. bit better? Read the instructions and take your time, it is worth it.
With Mercedes wanting 150+VAT just to plug their diagnostics into the car, this has already paid for itself.
