IIRC, in most cases these computers and software are very expensive. Also getting one can be very difficult in many places depending upon the Laws. The Auto Industry really only wants dealerships to have these.

Highly rated by Amazon reviews and ratings? Yeah, that's reliable information that is highly protected from abuse and fraud. /s

This hasn't been true for 20 years.

The influx of chinese products has drive the price down to less than $20.

Will it read all the manufacturer-specific clusters needed to confirm odometer fraud on this model of vehicle?

I use my $20 eBay OBD2 all the time on my Mk4 Jetta to confirm faults. However, even with such an old car with decent support, there are many things I'm unable to do or see.

The better ones will, maybe not the $20 ones. But even the good ones are only a few hundred dollars.
