I Look forward to hear if it's any good. How much was it ?
PP2000 seems to be the most common OBD system. It's a very complex system too from my understanding.
#6: Re: Just purchased an OBD adaptor.. Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Wed Nov 21, 2012 2:38 pm ---- I was going to get one but unsure what it shows via the OBD. Can you tell us what it shows when used with your 206?

PP2000 won't work with a generic EOBD connector. You need a specific Peugeot lead so that your computer will communicate with the car.

#14: Re: Just purchased an OBD adaptor.. Author: Lewis, Location: Isle Of WightPosted: Sat Nov 24, 2012 7:22 am ---- works amazing in the VXR. Boost, temps etc. Brilliant device. Some people on VXRonline who don't want to go plumbing in gauges have actually had a centre console built to fit an android tablet to show all the information. As the VXR doesn't have a boost gauge or temp gauge as standard for some mad reason.
#15: Re: Just purchased an OBD adaptor.. Author: NayNay1991x, Location: LeicesterPosted: Sun Nov 25, 2012 9:29 am ---- Unfortunately my Peugeot 206 (1999) can't seem to find or wont talk with the ECU had a look around some forums only to hear that cars later than the Year 2000 are OBDII compliant unless I'm doing something wrong then maybe someone could tell me, The device lights up perfect, lights flickering but doesn't seem to be talking to my ECU. However I do know that this does work with 206's.
Sorry guys

Good shout. Saw your post and took a punt at one for myself. Bluetooth OBD
I chose the ELM 327 super mini version as I means it can be left plugged in and the panel fitted back.
Did a little look round and opted to the Torque Pro software. Can be seen here.. Review
Bluetoothed it up to my wife's HTC wildfire S and runs real nicely.
Next step is finding the perfect Tablet or maybe Samsung Note mobile to use for longer term use.
Anyway, thanks once again to NayNay1991x for the

#19: Re: Just purchased an OBD adaptor.. Author: 206HdiGti, Posted: Mon Dec 03, 2012 7:23 am ---- My mate plugged his £5k snap on computer in and didn't find my DPF issue at the time so i'm guessing that one wouldn't either.
#20: Re: Just purchased an OBD adaptor.. Author: Mattie-RS, Location: A Track near you ;)Posted: Mon Dec 03, 2012 12:05 pm ---- I use this on the Clio.

#21: Re: Just purchased an OBD adaptor.. Author: jif63, Location: OtleyPosted: Tue Feb 19, 2013 2:46 pm ---- I just got one of these 327 elm interfaces and when plugged into the connector the software says its connected. But the only thing I can get it to display is error codes, and seeing as mine isnt showing a fault light I cant tell if its working or not. Should I be able to see the live data ? My car is a 2002 1.4 HDi.
Thanks
#22: Re: Just purchased an OBD adaptor.. Author: colganraz, Location: LeedsPosted: Tue Feb 19, 2013 3:04 pm ---- I have owned the torque pro app and adaptor for quite sometime now, great piece of kit, I actually wrote a review about it on the audi forums.
One of the good things is the trackrecorder - here is a vid I recorded (unfortunately on a low quality)

You'll have to check but diesels are a different standard, or were upto a certain year.

Off the top of my head it's 2004 onwards for diesels, although I have connected to a 2001 Y reg diesel using the Elm 327 and Palmer Performance Engineering software.
On a few models you just need to get the protocols set right in the software.
