The ANCEL BD500 is a Bluetooth OBD2 dongle for VAG cars (Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda, SEAT). It pairs with an iOS or Android phone and the ANCEL app to read and clear codes across all control modules, not just the engine. It also handles common service functions such as electronic parking brake reset, service reset and throttle learning, plus all 10 standard OBD2 modes on other cars. It suits VAG owners who want dealer-level system access without a handheld tool; generic-code readers are cheaper but reach fewer modules, and pro scan tools cost far more and need a dedicated screen.

Owners of VW, Audi and Skoda cars report the BD500 reads modules a basic code reader misses and clears faults reliably. Most criticism centers on the app and the VAG-only depth.
The ANCEL BD500 is a Bluetooth 5.0 OBD2 scanner built for Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda and SEAT vehicles. It reads and clears fault codes in the main systems, including engine, transmission, SRS, TPMS, ABS, SAS and ESP. It also covers body, chassis, powertrain and other control modules.
The scanner connects wirelessly to an iOS or Android phone and runs diagnostics through the ANCEL app. It supports all 10 OBD test modes, so it also works on non-VAG vehicles. AutoVIN technology identifies the vehicle in one touch, with no manual entry of make, model or year.
It supports maintenance functions such as Electronic Parking Brake Reset, Service Reset and Throttle Learning. Updates are free for life and add more models and functions over time.
