Which diagnostic reader should I buy?

Hello, do you recommend any particular OBD kits?

What kind of OBD would suit my 2006 Ford Focus 1.6TDCI?

Answered by Alan Ross
To be honest there are so many, at so many differing prices that it is difficult to say which one. However the cheap ones, being cheap, would not be our choice. However, the really expensive ones, although very good, would only be purchased if one was to use them frequently.
If you go on line and tap in OBDI/II and Ford Focus you will get plenty of choice.
