A method and system for assessing a vehicle electronic system. A vehicle diagnostic system comprises a vehicle diagnostic computer tool configured to operate in a mode to scan a vehicle for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). The vehicle diagnostic computer tool is connected with a diagnostic port of the vehicle to be in communication with an electronic system of the vehicle. The DTCs are reported by the vehicle's electronic system. An aftermarket diagnostic scan program is run to scan for DTCs, and the scan data acquired by the aftermarket diagnostic scan program is recorded. An original equipment manufacturer (OEM) diagnostic scan program is run to scan for DTCs, and the scan data acquired by the OEM diagnostic scan program is recorded. The scan data acquired by the aftermarket diagnostic scan program is compared to the scan data acquired by the OEM diagnostic scan program.
