Love your work! One question I have is whether any of the obd2 scanners you showed (especially the free one you reviewed - the elm obd2) is able to check actual car mileage.
CarScanner Pro is probably the easiest one to use out of the box and has a ton of PIDs and functionality built into it already. However I'm surprised that you haven't mentioned Torque Pro which indeed isn't that user friendly but being really lightweight and supported by a large list of plugins available, easy integration with other apps (eg. AA Performance Monitor) and ability to setup pretty complex custom PIDs I would argue makes it one of the best apps of its kind
Thanks for this new very helpful video, i have bought veepeak and have Carista and have Car scanner pro. i was wondering if you could help me. i have 2019 hybrid corolla but my car does not show auto lock feature. only auto lock if not unlocked but i want to have it lock if i forget to lock it. this feature is only available in us car model? windows open/close from remote work great, thx for the tip!
Hi I have 22 Corolla (Europe) and have also only autolock if you unlock car and don't open any doors in 30secs, the car will lock automatically. The time can be edited but that is only autolock coding the Corolla has.
can all these be used to like program lights and ect....I put foglights on a truck that didn't come with foglights so they have to be activated but I wanna go the cheapest route, I just don't know if everything is capable of doing that
OBDeleven/Thinkdiag can do some retrofit codings, but it always depends on vehicle. Some newly installed components will require extra hardware, it can be different for every model.
