Just had a little play with it - just sitting stationary.

Interesting that it showed no faults either logged, history or cleared.....? Is that a good thing? I would presume so.

Can anybody tell me the advantage of upgrading from the 'free' one?

Thanks.

Bought the Pro one anyway......

Having problems with mine.

I bought a tablet, OBDII adaptor and Torqu pro, everything connected OK but could not get a temperature reading, I thought the adaptor might be faulty so bought a better one, still no coolant or fault codes.

Yeaterday after many attempts everything started to work fine I even found a fault code, which I deleted.

Today not working again, no temp reading (shows -40), the car's diagnostic's do show the correct temp.

OBD paired OK, talking OK, connected to ECU OK, all lights flashing on adaptor.

I've got this set up too
I would be interested in what gauges people are using the most, and what are good numbers to look for.
For example i see "vacuum" gives results, but what numbers should i be looking for?
and what about MAF?

could anyone post up a list of what gauges work?
and their beset settings??

Mines a '51 Plate and all seemed to work OK. But I do understand Diesels are different according to year.....
