The iCarsoft CR V2.0 is a Professional and powerful vehicle fault diagnosis tool developed by iCarsoft Technology Inc. With a 4.0” TFT LCD and unique diagnostic software, it features full ECU diagnosis of single vehicle brands and test modes mainly including CANBUS, ISO9141, KWP2000, and J1850 etc. It enables technicians to accurately diagnose complex problems.
The CR V2.0 contains the exact same software as the single-brand V2.0 scanners - the only difference is that it can be used on multiple vehicle manufacturers. The scanner can support software for up to 10 different vehicle manufacturers of your choice. When you receive the scanner, you will need to plug it into your computer and download your chosen software options. You don’t need to add all 10 at once, however once they have been added they cannot be removed and replaced.
The CR V2.0 can support the following vehicle manufacturers:
Buy with the UK's official iCarsoft distributor and you will receive both this vehicle diagnostic tool as well as lifetime access to our premium customer service package, which includes:
This V2.0 scanner is capable of performing the following functions, but please note not all functions will be supported on all vehicles. Please contact us with the full vehicle details including the model, manufacture year and chassis type, or provide the VIN. We will provide a full list of all supported functions on your car.
General Diagnostics
Reading and clearing fault codes (DTCs), and viewing live data.
Oil Service Reset Interval
Reset the warning light that says an oil change or service is due. The scanner will do this on one-click in some cars, but for others a step-by-step process is required which the scanner will guide you through.
SAS Calibrations
This function allows you to reset or calibrate new Steering Angle Sensors after they have been changed.
EPB
The Electronic Parking Brake function allows you to manually wind back the rear brake pads into the service position, allowing you to change and recalibrate them.
ETCs
The Electronic Throttle Control function allows you to perform an adaptation after cleaning or replacing the Electronic Throttle Body. This function is also used when the ECU is replaced, or a negative battery terminal has been disconnected.
BMS
Access the Battery Management System of the vehicle in order to register a new battery and reset parameters after the battery has been changed.
ABS Bleeding
This function will allow you to bleed the brakes and remove air in the ABS module (Anti-lock braking system).
DPF Regen
Force a Diesel Particulate Filter Regeneration on the vehicle when the car cannot burn off the excess soot on its own. View live data including the DPF Fill Soot Levels.
Injector Coding
Code new injectors to the vehicle after replacement in order to ensure the car is burning off the correct amount of fuel, and carry out an Injector Valve Test. Please note: even if this function is supported, compatibility is only guaranteed if the injectors are replaced with the same type.
Returns
Due to an increased number of customers not checking compatibility before purchase, we can now only offer to cover the cost of return postage in exceptional circumstances - such as if the error regarding compatibility is our own, or the scanner itself is faulty (please see ‘Warranty’ below).
Please note that whilst our scanners are capable of performing many functions, this doesn’t mean that every single function is definitely supported on your vehicle. Please check our compatibility lists or contact us directly to confirm compatibility.
Upon contacting us about a return, please provide your vehicle details and the function you are trying to access, and we will check compatibility for you.
If you order a scanner that is not supported with your vehicle you are of course welcome to return for a refund within 30 days of receipt, however we kindly ask that you pay to return this yourself. We can recommend the Royal Mail Second Class Signed For service as the best value option for UK customers. If you choose to use an Ebay label, the cost of this might be deducted from your refund.
If your vehicle should be supported but the scanner is not working as it should, we can also offer technical support (see below).
Technical Support
Most problems can be fixed by updating the scanner, so please try this first. Please ensure all fault codes have been cleared in order to perform the service functions.
We have a dedicated iCarsoft technician that we can contact on your behalf if you do experience an issue that we cannot resolve ourselves. Please contact us with any problems and we will do our best to get your scanner up and running as soon as possible.
In the unlikely event that we cannot get the scanner working for you, we will cover the cost of postage for your return, and refund the order in full.
Warranty
Every iCarsoft scanner comes with a 2 year warranty as standard. This includes electronic faults and problems with the use of the unit, but does not cover accidental damage, e.g. a cracked screen.
Your warranty covers you for replacement of the same scanner model only. After the initial 30 days returns period has passed, the warranty entitles you to the replacement only, and not a refund. A refund will only be offered within the initial 30 day returns period, or if the scanner is unable to be replaced for any reason (e.g. out of stock).
Updates
You will require a laptop or desktop computer in order to update this scanner.
PC Users - download and update the software for this scanner via the iCarsoft website.
MAC Users - download and update the software for this scanner from the App Store.
Updates are free for life, so the price you pay when purchasing the scanner is the only cost you will ever need to pay.
Before updating, please remove all current software from the scanner to ensure there is enough space for the download. Plug the scanner into the computer and locate its file, then delete all contents the same way you would delete files on a USB stick.
Automatic VIN Recognition
Whilst iCarsoft scanners are able to automatically recognise the majority of VINs, some VINs are atypical and will not follow the standard format. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that automatic VIN recognition will work on every single car. If it isn’t supported, the VIN can be entered manually.
My Vehicle Isn’t Supported?
All of our compatibility lists are fully up to date, so if your vehicle isn’t supported it is likely for one of the following reasons:
Older models - some older vehicles will not support these scanners as the software does not exist for vehicles of this age.
Newer models - it takes iCarsoft around 2-3 years to develop software after vehicle releases. For example, the software for 2024 vehicles is likely to be released in 2026/2027.
Electric vehicles - iCarsoft scanners do not currently support electric vehicles.
The manufacturer has blocked the function - some software is not able to be created as the car manufacturer has implemented a factory access code which the scanner cannot bypass.
OBD2 Connection
OBD2 is the standard connection type that allows the scanner to communicate with the vehicle.
Some older cars might not have this connection type, so please check before purchase. For Mercedes, we offer a 38 PIN connector here.
Vehicles imported from Japan will have a different connection type which none of our scanners support. Please ensure the car is not an import and has a standard 17-digit VIN before purchase.
