For the people that have one, what are you using for an OBD code reader on their C8? I don't want to get too crazy with price just something I can check codes and some basic data if I get a Service Engine Soon light. Something compatible with model year 2024.

This the one that I have. It is probably more than you want, but I got it because is has CAN bus topology mapping, is very fast and supports a ridiculous amount of worldwide brands. According to the support for my 2024 Z51 it supports transmission fast relearn, fluid flush, leak testing and diagnostics. I have not actually used these yet.

I bought mine during one of the Harbor Freight sales. It was about $240.00 with the discount. I took a chance on the quality, but to my surprise it seems to be working very well. Who knows, they probably are all made at the same Chinese factory anyway.
