Shawn, it will read a few basic things, don`t let anyone put you off if you want to play around and see what your car is saying then get the app, make sure you get a decent Bluetooth adapter, there is some rubbish ones about.
You will find that on here there will always be someone to try and rattle you, upset you, it must be something in their personality.

I've got the paid app and am using it on a 2003 diesel tourer. I've found it useful for checking MAF values, engine temp values (checking stat) and also throttle position ( to make sure I actually achieve 100% when fully pressed).

There you are
I had some pictures of my readings but must have deleted them
I have the paid for one and what`s a couple of quid to have a bit of fun.
If it shows something is not quite right you can always follow up with with a T4 check, which I would say is a "little bit better" then Torque

Every car on the thread you've linked to is a petrol variant.

As I said earlier though, unless a diesel variant is fitted with an NNN500340 ECM the coding is not present to read via OBD protocol.

Clear enough?

Or Shawn's Ken

If you are using Torque to read an early, and by that I mean pre 2002 automatic, provided the ECM is running the latest version of tune, you may get fragments of data, bourne on the K-Line

Sadly however this is not actually of much use, because depending upon the revision of firmware in the adaptor, the decoding of the data will be corrupted and give spurious readings.

Pre 2003 manual cars fitted with NNN100692 ECM modules have zero OBD compliance, and I do mean that in the most sincere fashion

I've used this app to read my 03 plate diesel and it worked

Sure, you know where I am.
That is if I can find it I like the Pscan diagnostic and use that mainly.
Unless our friend is knocking about of course.

Shame eh?

Not true! Your talking out of your plenum chamber as usual.
