Bought one of these just to see what happened really.
Ebay Item # 4598611858
Obviously the scope of the readouts are very limited.
I tried it at engine idle + engine off.
came up with 1131 + 1151
Any ideas or should i just ignore it?
Car runs ok. Perhaps a little choppy at idle but less than 1k rpm nevertheless.
Fuel consumption average 29mpg around town with 12mile runs to Inverness from Beauly + back.
Any Comments?

is it as easy to operate as the ebay shop claims?? plug abd play?? thinking of getting one of theses as well as the more expensive lead from alex pepper? cheers
Also as it comes from the states do u have to be in to sign for it and pay more tax to the gangsters in charge of this country!!!

Hi Mate
Its okay and displays any codes stored but as Eric says, if there are any DTC's then you will have reached the scope of the reader by then.
Item arrived within 2days by Express Global Mail. Wasnt signed for.
Regards
