    It gives you piece of mind. I've used it quite a few times to tell buddies that yeah... that engine code means you didn't screw in the fuel cap tight enough

    I use mine all the time. There are cheaper ways to find out, but it's a really handy tool.

    yes, peace of mind. I check for codes periodically (no codes found yet) and use it to reset oil and service lights. Just reset my oil lights yesterday after an oil/filter change.
