Hello. My car gives P2423 code. I have a problem with the cat. I would like to investigate with details about this on my car. Does your device show info about this such as chemical levels in the exhaust gases, oxygen sensors’ data/readings such as their voltage, charts, etc? TY
it gives different levels to the fault code scan that it does. but it gives warnings, especially if you have VAG group cars. I think you need to know what you are doing to do more than a basic scan.
Have you tried to read the ABS sensors values? I have a pro version of the Car Scanner and my OBD Adapter support "Live Data" readings , but when I select the "Live data " in app, it does not give me any readings from the sensors.
I just got this one, using it with the first car scanner unit I've ever tried. It was $12 on Amazon and it seems to work fine. Still learning what to do and how to work this but I want to use it to scan cars I'm looking at buying. The only issue I had was trying to connect with my 2010 Chevy HHR LS. It was impossible to determine which profile to choose from. That didn't happen with my 2013 Mazda CX-5 AWD Touring. I chose the first Chevy one and it didn't work at all. The second one is listed for other models. Anyone know what to do on this?
General Motors is a messed up brand with way too many quality issues but I didn't know it would be that messed up for OBD2 scanning. That seems like a no-brainer that should be simple and automatic to connect to OBD2 software. But...issues. Won't work.
I have a Isuzu NPR that wouldn’t do a regen do to the codes that where stored. What I did was clear all the codes and then the vehicle did the regen. But in the app i did not see a feature to force the regen.
It works very well with my 2013 Suzuki Splash. Be aware that the OBD scanner has three leds on the long face and when inserted into the car's OBD socket they point towards the floor. No great shakes if the B/Tooth connection to phone (ie screen) is working but (some of) these leds are likely to be on 24 hours if left connected. Not entirely sure if this will affect the battery over time!
Thank you very very much for that in depth review! ❤️ Just got the App and works just as expected 😁
Glad I could help!
Could we insert this on the car during it run? And could we obtain the data in our PC using 3G?

If your car has a sensor for those things then it will display the data from them. It depends on your specific car as to what sensors you have.
Does this work for EVs? And do I need a dongle? If so, how much? from where? and where does it plug in?
I have no idea. Check a forum for your car.
does it give you a really in depth information of faults rather than the cheap scanners that just give you a code?

I dont get that option either. Maybe its not covered under OBD.
thank you for posting

"Car Scanner" is the name of the app

When I connect in the app, it automatically selects the protocol for the car.
have you ever use Torque Pro and compare it?
Sorry, no I haven't. I looked at Torque Pro but Car Scanner did everything I wanted.
Can you use this app too do a forced regen please. I have the obd 11 wireless

Is it compatible with an Suzuki Alto 2011?

Hello mate I'm trying to find a obd2 reader for my VW mk5 08 1.9. Seen this app and thought what's the Bluetooth adapter? Any help
I like the vGate iCar2. Does everything I want but there are newer ones available. eg I think there is an iCar3 out now but I haven't tried it.
