I've got the Maxi Diag Elite MD802 from Autel
It's a great unit and it has communicated with everything I've plugged it into so far

VX Commodore 'S
Mate vt/vx commodore v6s are not obdII. Yes they have the obdII plug but do not run the protocol. So those elm327 will not work.
Go on eBay and buy a aldl cable and use Tunerpro RT. You can find fault codes, reset srs, even write custom bin files to ur ecu.
