Which tool, if any is your shop using for TPMS reset/relearn and programming?
Bartec500 for me - that thing is amazing!
I have a shop in Michigan. I am very good Friends with Eri. The moment he showed me the VT55 model i fell in love with this tool. ATEQ tools are the best!! Very easy to use. Give it a try and you will share the same opinon! I am yet to see a car that i cannot reset with this tool!
NAPA Echlin scan tool is the best!!

ATEQ has the best tools around! Can't wait for the VT56 release!
ATEQ !!! VT 56 is just incredible.
The ATEQ VT 56 is an excellent tool!
It so happens that I have used them all (i.e: the ones in the poll).
ATEQ tools are very easy to use.
Bartec tools are second to that, but are still very good.
Both brands are excellent when it comes to vehicle coverage, or feature list, but I always had a sweet spot for ATEQ, because of their user friendliness.
Now, the new ATEQ VT56 I saw at SEMA has no competition. Way ahead of anything. I don't know about its price though.
The SnapOn tool is basically a rebranded ATEQ.
The rest is either real crap or limited by the company that sells them (a Schrader tool will not be compatible with non-Schrader sensors).
Autel's looks good but is nowhere near the 2 first ones in terms of coverage, quality of the workflow or programmable sensors.
Autel now has its own programmable sensor, so their tool will never be as universal as ATEQ's or Bartec's who don't sell sensors.
All sensor manufacturers will see Autel as a competitor and move away from them
Someone should make a Youtube video of all of them so people can see for themselves.
