Does anyone know if the memoscan u380 only reads injection codes,or does it read airbag,abs,multi timer unit codes as well?

For under £100 you're unlikely to get anything like a fully functional scan tool... if you could garages everywhere would buy them. I do believe that every true enthusiast should have something like this in their tool box though.

Unfortunatly, the u380 will only do generic "P" codes for the Engine side of things i'm afraid... don't expect much in the way of Live Data either.

Thanks for the reply...Whats the cheapest fully functional scan tool?

Depends what you want it to do - SnapOn Modus, Launch, Etc all come in around £1100-1900 + vat

I guess it depends on what level you want to get in to "things" but kit like this tends to be beyond the financial reach of most DIYers
