Yes, GEARWRENCH diagnostic devices are compatible with most diesel vehicles, provided they adhere to the OBD-II standard, which has been mandatory for most vehicles manufactured since 1996 in the United States and 2001 in the European Union. However, the specific features and functions available for diesel vehicles may vary depending on the device model and the vehicle's make and model. For heavy duty diesel vehicles or commercial trucks, a specialized diagnostic device designed for those applications may be required. We recommend verifying compatibility with your specific vehicle to ensure the device meets your diagnostic needs.
