Finally know what that warning light means
My check engine light came on and I had no idea what it meant. Plugged this in, scanned it, and it told me straight away it was a loose fuel cap. Saved me a pointless trip to the garage.

Drivers across the UK are switching to CarVitals
Real feedback on fault clarity, ease of pairing and money saved on garage visits.
Excellent 4.8/5 from verified customers
The severity rating changes everything
Instead of just a scary code, it tells you if it is serious or something you can leave for now. Took the panic out of the whole thing.
M
Saved me a garage diagnostic fee
I was about to book a diagnostic at the garage for around 80 pounds just to find out what was wrong. This told me in two minutes for a fraction of the price.
C
Works across all three of our cars
We have got three cars in the house and this pairs with all of them. No need to buy three separate scanners.
A
Small enough to keep in the glovebox
It is tiny, just clips into the OBD port and Bluetooths to my phone. I keep it in the glovebox and never think about it until I need it.
H
Does not drain your car battery
I was worried about leaving it plugged in but it only draws power when you are actually scanning. No issues with my car battery at all.
D
Picked up more than I expected
I thought it would just read the engine code but it went through all 11 systems, including things I did not even know could throw a fault.
P
Caught a fault before it got expensive
It flagged a serious code on my transmission before I noticed anything was wrong. Got it looked at early and avoided a much bigger bill.
E
One scanner for the whole family's cars
My son's Ford, my wife's Audi, my old Vauxhall, this has covered every one of them without any compatibility issues.
L
Set up in under two minutes, no manual needed
Plugged it in, downloaded the app, paired over Bluetooth and had a full scan done before the kettle boiled.
N
Bought a second one for my mum

What is CarVitals?
CarVitals is a Bluetooth OBD2 scanner that reads all 11 of your vehicle's systems, rates every fault by severity and gives you a plain-English repair guide, built to do the job of a garage diagnostic for a fraction of the price.
How does the severity rating work?
Every fault code is checked against its risk level and flagged as Slight or Serious, so you know immediately whether it is something to deal with today or something that can wait until your next service.
Will it work with my car?
Yes. CarVitals supports 90+ vehicle brands and 10,000+ models through a universal OBD-II connector, standard on virtually every car made since 1996.
Does it drain my car's battery?
No. CarVitals only draws power from your car's OBD-II port while you are actively scanning, so it has no meaningful impact on your battery.
Do I need to be a mechanic to use it?
No. CarVitals is built for entry-level users. Plug it in, pair over Bluetooth and follow the plain-English repair guide, no technical knowledge required.
What is your return policy?
Every order comes with a 30 day money back guarantee and a 1 year warranty. If something is not right, our support team will sort it out.

Best purchase for anyone who ignores dashboard lights
I had been driving with an amber warning light on for months, too nervous to find out what it meant. This told me in under a minute and it turned out to be nothing serious.
Dalen F.
Handles all three of our cars, no problem
We are a two car household plus my daughter's first car. This pairs with all three without any fuss.
Alex M.
The only scanner I will ever need
I tried a couple of cheap code readers before this and they would just show a code with no explanation. This actually tells you what it means and what to do about it.
Leah D.
Ordered Monday, sorted by Wednesday
Fast delivery and it paired with my phone first try. I was not sure what half my dashboard lights meant until this arrived.
Rick V.
Finally understand my own car
I have owned this car three years and never known what half the warning lights actually meant. This explained every single one in plain English.

Saved me a lot of money
I was about to pay for a diagnostic at the garage before a mate showed me this. Same result, for a fraction of the cost.
