I do think they (Snap On) quite forcing you to buy all the updates in between though, before if you waited say 3 years to update, then they wanted $3000 to bring you up to date. I'm not sure how you manage free updates for a Snap on Scanner, we just paid $1000 to have the shops Solus Ultra updated a few months ago, and while we buy a fair amount of tools from them, he never seemed inclined to give away anything other than a calendar or a soap sample.

Now if there has been some big announcement from them saying they are discontinuing support, please direct me to it. Unless you work for a dealership that's not usually an issue anyway, and if you work for a dealership you will have the factory scan tool anyway.

People keep saying they don't make updates for the Genisys, have been saying it since I bought mine in like 2010.īut they do make updates, they seem to lag a bit behind snap on true, but they are cheaper and you can do them yourself easily. Just the first link I happened across with google.
