Thought I would add some first impressions on the product, it was delivered today at lunchtime and its very easy to use :-)

 

I tried a couple of free iPad apps, best one IMO was iOBD2 (green engine icon with a spanner on it and "CHECK" down at the bottom)

 

Here's how it works.

 

Plug it in with ignition switched off (fits under the dash near the bonnet release button)

Turn ignition to the on position

Go to the settings on the iPad and look for the WIFI network associated with the OBD reader and connect to it

 

Open the app, click on settings and under hardware select "ELM327"

Under Connection select "WIFI"

Under Vehicle model enter the year, model, engine size and fuel

 

Thats it done, it connected first time

 

I then went to "Diagnostic", put a tick by everything I wanted to monitor and it pulled in all the details (these can also be saved.) There is also a function to show a graph of one particular thing you want to monitor for a period of time and you can read any error codes from the OBD and reset the orange engine light on the dashboard if you need to.

 

Thanks for reading
