evotell Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Decided to purchase this, sounds a very interesting tool, works wirelessly with all Smart Phones. Will do a review when it arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael H Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I think I'm correct in saying that if you have a standard MBD ECU in your Seven, these OBD2 devices do not work. You need a special adapter cable only available from MBD (although I'm sure there's nothing special about it - do they deliberately swap over the Rx and Tx signals or something silly?) Good luck anyway Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revilla Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Rover MEMS 3 in your case (EU3) - works with a cheapo Chinese version of what you have bought and most other OBDII scanners so should be no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evotell Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 The great thing about OBD2 of course is it works on nearly all modern cars, I'm interested to see what is says about my Jeep GC Diesel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted April 16, 2014 Member Share Posted April 16, 2014 Have you decided what software to use? They seem to recommend iOBD2 but if you look at the user ratings in the version on the US App Store it's pretty discouraging. As I wrote in another thread if someone can find a combination of hardware and software that reliably does what's needed there would be a lot of happy members. Looking forward to your findings.
