The ANCEL BD500 is a versatile and intelligent Bluetooth OBD2 diagnostic scanner specifically designed for Volkswagen Group vehicles—including VW, Audi, Skoda, and SEAT—while also offering full engine diagnostics for most OBD2-compliant cars worldwide. Engineered to provide dealer-level capabilities through an easy-to-use mobile app, the BD500 transforms any iOS or Android device into a powerful automotive diagnostic system.

Whether you're a car owner, DIY enthusiast, or professional mechanic, the ANCEL BD500 delivers comprehensive diagnostics, advanced maintenance functions, and reliable Bluetooth connectivity—all in a portable, user-friendly package.

Manufacturer-Level Diagnostics for VAG Group Vehicles

Unlike generic OBD2 tools, the ANCEL BD500 provides full-system diagnostics tailored for Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda, and SEAT vehicles. It can access and diagnose all major control modules, including:

• Engine

• Transmission

• ABS (Anti-lock Braking System)

• SRS (Airbag System)

• TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System)

• ESP (Electronic Stability Program)

• SAS (Steering Angle Sensor)

• Immobilizer, Body, Chassis, and more

The scanner enables users to read and clear fault codes, view live data, and monitor the real-time health of VAG vehicles. This level of detail is typically available only in dealership-grade tools, making the BD500 a cost-effective alternative for in-depth diagnostics.

Advanced VAG Maintenance Services

The BD500 offers three essential service functions for VAG vehicles:

• Oil Service Reset: Reset the oil change reminder after maintenance

• EPB (Electronic Parking Brake) Function: Replace brake pads or service the brake system safely

• Throttle Adaptation: Calibrate the throttle position sensor for smoother idling and fuel efficiency

These guided maintenance tasks are accessible through the app with step-by-step instructions, allowing even non-professionals to carry out important services confidently and correctly.

Exclusive Diagnostic Features for All Vehicles

For both VAG and non-VAG vehicles, the BD500 includes exclusive diagnostic features that set it apart from standard Bluetooth scan tools:

• Battery Voltage Monitoring: Track starting voltage over time and analyze battery health through graphical reports

• Brake Performance Test: Evaluate braking force and distance with numerical results for safety insights

• Trip Data Logging: Analyze driving history and system behavior across different trips

These features provide deeper insight into your vehicle’s performance and electrical system than traditional OBD2 tools.

Full OBDII Functions for Non-VAG Vehicles

For non-VAG cars (other OBDII-compatible models from 1996 and later), the BD500 functions as a standard OBD2 code reader, offering:

• Engine system diagnostics

• Reading and clearing of emissions-related fault codes

• I/M readiness status check for emissions testing

• Real-time data stream display

• Vehicle information reading (VIN, CIN, CVN)

Although full-system scans are limited to VAG vehicles, the BD500 still delivers essential diagnostics for any compatible car, making it an ideal tool for households with multiple car brands.

Strong Compatibility & Seamless Bluetooth Integration

The BD500 is compatible with:

• VAG vehicles: Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda, SEAT, including models like Golf, Jetta, Passat, Tiguan, A3, A4, Octavia, Leon, and more

• Most non-VAG vehicles with OBD2 support, including those using KWP, TP20, UDS, and all common OBDII protocols

Bluetooth 5.0 ensures fast, stable connections between the scanner and your iPhone, iPad, or Android smartphone/tablet. This wireless connection allows convenient diagnostics without messy cables, with real-time data streaming directly to your device.

Exclusive App & Lifetime Free Updates

Unlike many Bluetooth OBD2 tools that rely on third-party apps with limited functions or hidden subscription fees, the ANCEL BD500 uses a dedicated, proprietary mobile app developed in-house by ANCEL. Benefits include:

• Full access to all advanced diagnostic functions

• Yearly updates for the latest vehicle models

• No additional charges or hidden costs

• Lifetime free software upgrades

This guarantees long-term value and ensures the scanner stays relevant with evolving vehicle systems and diagnostic standards.
