Free trial
The trial installs on any Windows PC and reads live fault codes from your vehicle. No account, no card, and no expiry countdown — take as long as you like.
Step 1
Two trials, and the difference between them is the difference between the two editions most people buy. Both install the same way and neither needs a card.
Reads the fault code and tells you what it means.

Also shows you why the code was set.

Not sure? Take Enhanced. It does everything Standard does, and the extra screens are the ones that tell you which part is actually at fault.
Step 2
The trial connects to your car and reads it properly. Two things are held back for the licensed version.
A licence key is emailed within minutes of your order and unlocks the copy you already installed — there is nothing to download again.

Step 3
One thing the software cannot do on its own
AutoScan reaches your car through an ELM327 adapter that plugs into the OBD2 port under the dashboard — USB for a laptop, Bluetooth for a phone or tablet. They cost around £10–£30 and are sold everywhere. We are a software company and no longer sell hardware, so buy whichever you prefer.
Already own an ELM327 from another app — Torque, Car Scanner, FORScan? It will work here too. There is nothing to buy again.
A Windows PC or laptop (Windows 7 through 11) and an ELM327 adapter. Nothing else.
No. There is no countdown and no nag screen. It stays usable for as long as you want to evaluate it.
Enhanced, unless you are certain you only ever want to read a code and turn the light off. Enhanced includes everything Standard does.
No. The licence key unlocks the copy you already have.
