yeah seems to be ok and a good price to.

Thanks, I already had an Elm327 interface but it was serial RS232 and an out of date version, had it since 2007 so thought it was time for an upgrade so I can modify it to access the other modules lol. Looked on eBay and somebody was selling pre-modified ones for £35, which seems a bit expensive seeming that one is only £10 so have purchased that and will modify myself ElmScan has been a great help so far I have a 2008 2.0 TDCi mk2.5 also which is currently in a crippled state lol its in limp mode and wont rev over 3000 rpm and struggles to get past 50mph so its been great being able to scan the various modules in my ongoing investigation into eliminating this problem.

@RB2004

SToc members get £10 off and free postage

[RB2004]

Im not a paid member on there at the moment though only free registered, and didn't know if you needed to be a paid member to qualify lol. now I know it was only £25 that seems like a good deal considering the work involved in modifying it.

Yeah it doesn't matter if your a paid member or not as long as you can PM and are happy with the conditions of sale

Shift light
Changed some timings for the lights.

My distant to empty is well out still says on filling the tank i have a range of 350ish miles when i only get about 230ish miles to a tank and today I used the built in sat nav and the miles to your end of journey is out on the clocks compared to the touch screen
By 1.6 miles.

I have ran 3 tanks full through the car since changing anything

When this option is actived at what temp does it switch on at?

Can you also determine the temp you want this function to switch on at?

Thanks

Hey, can someone confirm if i got the wiring right.

The ELM327 box on the diagram represents the connector that connects the OBD socet to the readers circuit board?

the X:s mean i need to cut the wire?

thanks

I think it's 5 degrees - the car was reading 3 this morning and worked fine. Plenty of ice on the front and rear screens.

I'm unsure whether this value can be changed without looking. Someone may be able to advise.
