Misfires generally clear immediately, if it hasn't gone away typically you're looking at wiring damage, injector problem or physical engine damage. I'd start by checking the wiring harness carefully. When you have a single cylinder misfire it's always good to swap coils rather than replace. If the mis moves its the coil, if the mis doesn't move it's not the coil.
At this price, don't expect it to work on some extended Canbus protocols. For example VW/Audi, and other vehicles that have manufacturer specific extended coding.
I think those readers are more expensive. So while these may work fine for a lot of cars, it would only pull generic codes common in the OBDII protocols. Things like Misfires, sensor signal low, Oxygen sensor errors, something short to ground etc etc. I don't think you can get too far in and modify module settings. On my Ford, you need specific software/hardware to get into the BdyCM, for example.

(Background: built a VW/Audi OBDII opto-isolated reader with my brother from schematics online around 2003, it worked with VAGCOM software that is still popular today)
$12 devices have been clearing basic codes for years.

"It can do essential work like resetting monitors, CEL issues, and clearing codes. It can also read live data, collect vehicle information, freeze data and display code definitions on the screen."

Interesting. I am still showing the $12.37 price on my Prime account. Not sure if it will let you once the click code has been used but try using promo code RYJNA6ZI and see if that gives you the $12.37 price.

I had the same issue at first. Came up as $14.62 but once I re-entered the coupon code it went to the $12.37 price which worked. My guess is that's its 2 different % coupons stacked that the order they're processed in matters.

I went ahead and just changed the promo code. This one seem to work without the hassle and gives the price as $12.37. The two codes don't appear to be stackable.Thanks augielicious and kulish111 for the help!

I have a VW jetta that had a cylinder 5 misfire code. i changed all 5 coils, all 5 plugs, even the entire valve cover (there was oil getting into where the plugs were) and the code wont go away. can things like this clear the code out? (i know it will come back if its still a problem)
