Over the last 6 months I've had 2 dash warning lights come on intermittently, so I thought I'd buy myself an OBD2 reader to try and see what's going on. Spent nearly $200 on a Foxwell NT301, connected it up this morning but no diagnostic codes were detected. Is it me not using the device correctly...

Hi All,

Wondering what are good options for watching some diagnostics as I drive my T5.1? Particularly interested to see when it does any regen and to see any fault codes on the fly. Is it as simple as a cheap ebay OBD2 bluetooth dongle and an android app, or are there better options?...

I am seeking advice on an impending situation regarding the install of a JB4 piggyback tune module.
I currently have a P3 Cars Multigauge installed which is connected to the OBD2 port. I understand the JB4 also requires constant access to the OBD2 port. I believe there may be...
