Default OBD II scanners - 10-08-2009 , 06:50 PM






Does anyone here know about OBD II scanners that work with the iPhone. I
have the old 3G model, not the faster 3G-S model B-(.

I think there are some.

You can use it to see how much fuel the car is using at any one time and
get other information, like coolant temperature and calculated engine
load. These can be displayed in a real-time graph.

My scanner tells me that, and I can still use my phone.
