good luck in canada

I've called and visited everywhere and nobody will do it for free, like Pep Boys or Autozone in the States.

Best bet is to buy your own tester from C-Tire for fairly inexpensive, or borrow somebody else's.

Yeah the tool is $150 and they charge you like $80 Do it twice and it's paid for.

I've seen some cheaper deals from time to time at CT.
Last time when I checked it was more around the $90 range for one that was on sale.

Who cares about all the crazy features as long as it tells you the code and erases.

i am going to try "the free rental" technique. Buy one and then an hour later return it with a good excuse.

There should be an easy/cheap way to do it. I haven't tried this for my s2k but i have tried it for the RSX and it worked great. It might work for the s2k...
