Default Scanners for 2007 models

I searched and found several threads on scanners, but I was hoping for some updated info from the various members out there.

I am looking at the Innova line and Actron line of scanners. I mainly work on my 07 Z06, but I do have a Dodge truck, Acura, and VW that these units say they can talk too as well. I am looking for something that can give me access to the DTCs and clear them(if I do the fix). The Innova 3160 and the Actron CP9580a are at the top on my list currently. Both are a little more than the average in their line-up, but I am capable of doing a lot of the work on my vehicles.

Please give feedback on units you may have even if only in reference to using on your Vette.

TIA

I've got an Innova 3140 and love it.

Have not used it on the old Z06 or new GS, but will reset and read OBD1 units as well.

Guy in our club employed by The Bureau of Automotive Repairs, also uses Innova and swears by them.

If you're the same guy that "Built" his Z06, how's it doing??

Thank you for the feedback on the Innova.

Yes, the Z06 was "built" and it is running fine. There are some future changes coming, but all is sound for now.

I have the 3140b from Innova and love it. I've used it on my Vette to diagnostic DTCs and worked great to help identify the problem.
