Default Tried another OBD2 Scanner

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1


pro's .. Got Rover in the Menus listing all Models.
Seems to do the ABS including reading live data from All wheels.
No too clever with the SRS system
Normal OBD2 seems to pick up most info from the motor, but says my CDTi has a spark ?

Use BMW mode and it actually reads my Diesels and the 260's VIN , although it reckons its a 7 series. does a system check in BMW mode but doesn't find much with so many BMW features .
Very Similar in the 260, ABS, and OBD2 in Rover or Ford mode.

Landrover mode does nothing ..

Loads of other cars though..


will record live data or make reports you can save onto the Device

plug into a usb to power it off the car and do updates via your Wifi.


Cons ... £108 .. a £7 off voucher at the moment as well

But you can always send it back on Amazon Prime ..





Just doing a Update via Wifi.. if its better or worse I'll update the post ..


Well updated some the cars I would use, we will see if they are any different.


Now updated the actual System and its now got a bucketload of other options in the menu's.. inc a Maintenace options full of resets.

Well, you can't argue with that.

Played around a bit more today on the CDTi.,

And it seems to be able to reset the service counters ,


You might be able to reset the oil service to different numbers using various Models of the Chinese Mg's ,
Set mine to 6000 which is about what I used to do a year. using MG7 .( well i think I have) it displays Oil Service 6000 ?

and whilst doing so, the display of the IPK shows this screen.




Never seen that before ?
