Default Is it worth getting one of these?

Understand that you could do some damage if you adjust something you shouldn't but for general fault diagnosis and being nosy would it be worthwhile?

Or is it just a cheap piece of crap that wont work?

we often get people in who have meddled and made things worse. A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing.

Also having a tool like this, WILL make you paranoid and not enjoy the car.
