Searching for OBD-II scanner with DPF regeneration mode for Toyota Hilux

I have a problem with my Toyota Hilux where black smoke is coming out of the exhaust when accelerating. I am looking for an OBD-II scanner that has a DPF regeneration mode for a Toyota Hilux. This is a software activated cleaning of the particulate filter. Does anyone have any suggestions or experiences with such a scanner?

Before purchasing a scanner, check if your air filter is clean and replace it if necessary, as a clogged air filter can cause black smoke. If the issue persists, consider using an OBD-II scanner like the Autel MaxiCOM MK808, which supports DPF regeneration for Toyota vehicles. Let me know if you need further assistance!

Are there positive results with this scanner and dpf regenerations?

The Autel MaxiCOM MK808 is generally well-regarded for its comprehensive diagnostic capabilities, including DPF regeneration. Many users have reported successful DPF regenerations with this tool. However, results can vary depending on the specific condition of your vehicle's DPF and other related components. After trying the scanner, monitor your vehicle's performance and let me know if you notice any improvements or if you need further help.
