  • the older I get, the faster I was
I bought this tool
:link: VGATE ELM327 Bluetooth OBD2 Car Diagnostics Scanner Scan Tool Android PC v2.1 | eBay

I use TorquePro on my Sony Android.
it reads the fault codes and reset the fault codes.
but, for some reason it will not get the true live data from the car.
only thing I could get a reading is the throttle data. :foottap:

Will it do fuel trims?
I looked at the link and it says it does but so did Toads proscan.

I couldn't say as I've not used it but the hand held versions are usually a more capable and professional solution, the Foxwell NT301 gets good reviews and is rated better than the AUTEL AL519, if it doesn't do the trims as mentioned then you can return it.

Supercheap also have a Bosch unit :link: Bosch Auto Scanner OBD2 & Can - Supercheap Auto
