Coyote, that link states that version is not suitable for Nissan vehicles !!!

Jetpilot, I guess at the price they are I have nothing to lose, I am going to call AA out tomorrow to find out what my current problem is but want the code reader so I can find out for myself.

Usually they won't work on imports either if memory serves. Not sure why

Jdm have a different code by all accounts.

 

In all fairness after the hassle i was a bit disappointed with the info i could get, you dont really get much more than you see on the dials, i was hoping for, oil temp, afr etc The only extra i got that i wanted was air intake temp (handy for fi).

 

Good for codes and clearing them though etc

You get AFR although its slow to respond and of limited use

 

If you download the Advanced EX for Nissan in Google play you can get a huge amount of data and the 370 is fully supported

such as

 

* VVT Oil Temperature (*)

* Base Fuel Injection Pulse Width

* Fuel Injector Pulse Width / Duty Cycle

* Mass Air Flow (*)

* MAF Volts (*)

* EVAP Purge Duty

* A/F Ratio Adjustment

* Camshaft Advance Angle (*)

* Cruise Control Speed (*)

* Cooling Fan Activation

* A/C Compressor Activation

* Idle Controller / Brake Switch

AA been out today, said throttle body out of range, he reset and light is now off so good news, he said they get carboned up if only used for short journeys, which mine has been over the last few weeks so I need to take it out for a blast - good excuse if ever there was one needed.

 

Oil gauge still doesn't move though, AA man says there is no problem with oil pressure and red light would have come on if there were so looks like the actual gauge is at fault.

 

He also said obd reader wouldn't pick up the throttle issue!

No I'm on Android samsung note 4. It's a UK car too, as I've read imports have more issues. I tried about 8 different apps, none of them would connect to the car. My phone paired to it ok.
