Bluetooth OBD2 adaptor for 1997 Legacy

Featured Replies

Hi all,

I've been searching and trying many different OBD2 dongles in my 97 legacy to no avail.  I'm attempting to use the dongle to read live data through torque pro.  Do you have any recommendations for wireless readers that will work with our early obd2 cars?  I'm struggling here - I'm on my 4th one.

 

Thanks

for android panlong mini obdii readers.  like 10.00 on amazon

Just get a $25 Launch c-reader. Don't bother with Bluetooth. The refresh rates suck and there is frequently compatibility issues. 

What do you need wireless for anyway?

I want to use it for live data reads while driving until I get my vehicle dialed in.

I have used it on all sorts of different cars that have obdii ports.  It never has failed me.

What exactly are you trying to "dial in"?

It's not as if you can tune these ECU's. 

None of the factory Select Monitor's (including the SSM IV for the 2020 models) come with any sort of wireless features. If the dealer tech's don't need it why do you?
