Hello Members
I posted this here rather than on the 'OBD diagnostics' section, as I thought it might draw more relevance to my car.
I have a 'Vw Golf TDi SE 1.9 Estate Auto (Diesel) year of registration 2002 (I think that makes it a Mk4).
I have 'Torque Pro' on my Android phone, and a ELM 327 'bluetooth' dongle, I have used this android app and hardware on both my previous Vw Polo 1.4 petrol(2001), and my family's VW's (Vw Gti Golf 2.0 2006 & Golf 1.6 2005).
I'm finding that the Torque Pro app can't connect(communicate) with the Golf TDi 's ECU.
So I'm woundering if any members who have the same VW car model, and who successfully use the' Torque Pro' android app, have got it working?
If it is working for them, are they using a specific type/make of 'bluetooth' dongle, (what's the make please?
Or, are they connecting to the cars ECU by doing a specific sequence routine when using the Android app and there ELM 327.
If the TDi's ECU can never communicate using Torque Pro or the ELM 327 dongle, is there a good Handheld Diagnostic reader that works with this car, and that can also do live readings
for around the £100 to £200 price range.
Thanks for any members help.
Kind regards
