nipper Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 ok....i have recently been hearing alot about this electronic tool for subarus called the Select monitor III....What exactly is this??? Is it just a manufacturer specific OBD II scanner? Its a subaru specific scanner that is OBDII, PLUS scans the tranny, the ABS, and the air bag system (and what ever other puters are in the car). It has more features then a normal OBD scanner. Each mfg has thier own OBDII scanner on steriods. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 do you know how many Subarus I could buy if I had that sort of "ching" floating around!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Keep an eye on ebay. I picked up one of the first gen select monitors and a few cartridges for around $300 I think. But I don't think you'll find too many new select monitors on ebay though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hondasucks Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 You only NEED the SMIII for the 08+ (maybe 07+), the SMII will do all the way back to at least the early EFI cars (Pretty sure it'll do carb cars w/ the computer) with the proper cartridge. You would need the brown cartridge, handles 98 and earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
