I don't know what your Autel will do, but I think it will depend on what you want it to do. I have an older Genysis scan tool that will cycle the ABS pump for bleeding. It won't do everything the Tech 2 will, but when I got it was a good price (used). I also wanted something that I could use on our Ford Explorer, so this was the best compromise.
It really varies by vehicle, almost all of them will do ABS functions. On my Cadillac I could do thing with the trans like cycle gears and disabling torque converter lockup. Here’s a list from one of the models I’m looking at (Launch):
——2024 Welcomes 5 Additional Service Functions: 1.E.GR Adaptation 2.High Voltage Battery Detection 3.CCS (Cruise Control System) Calibration
4.G.PF (Gas Particular Filter) Regeneration 5.Cylinder Power Balance Test: This invaluable test uncovers concealed engine issues related to misfires, power loss, or suboptimal engine performance.
