Thread: Car scanner profile for odb2

    Car scanner profile for odb2

    Hi all

    I have a 2007 polo GTI and it has a warning light to do with emissions.

    I have a bluetooth odb2 scanner from odb2 Australia and using the app called car scanner

    For the profile I just selected the generic odb2 one but I feel this is not right as I am not getting any codes show up for the warning light. Also I believe being a turbo it will have extra sensors which I need the specific profile for

    Does anyone know which is the right profile to use?

    Here are the links to the options:

    An OBD ELEVEN would be much better although not much available on older models

    Try Torque Lite. I have a generic bluetooth obd2 device and it lets me check and reset codes and see boost pressure etc.

    '07 Polo GTI like yours

    Thanks guys got the Torque Lite app to work and was able to clear the codes was getting a P0116 coolant temp range although I suspect this warning is old because if the car gets this code its supposed to go in to failsafe mode when the engine will be rough from a cold start until it warms up but this isnt happening

    I guess this odb2 dongle is the best idea for me just wanting to see codes etc.. I guess anything more professional is when you are able to make changes to the ECU and I don't think I want to be doing that!

    Cheers
