Vgate iCar Pro Bluetooth 3.0 OBD2 Code Reader OBDII Scanner Scan Tool Car Fault Check Engine Light for Torque Android

This is a great little device. Worked perfectly on my 07 ford focus and my 2001 Lexus is200. Was able to check all codes, remove dash lights and check stats live. When you receive it you need to download developers app VgateFwUpdater, once downloaded open it. Hit the scan button to scan for your device once done hit update to update the firmware. Bear in mind engine needs to be switched on for power to update & scan the ecu. Then download car scanner on App Store. Very simple to do. Just plug the obd in and start the engine up, open car scanner, go to setting and select your car from the database once done, go to the main menu and hit connect. Takes a few seconds only. On my Lexus I removed the check engine light cause of the decat and removed all lambda codes. Cel then turned off. The ford focus had 1 code for a system fault which was removed. Everything is sound now. Saved money from going to a mechanic. Brilliant little obd scanner. 3 lights on the front to tell you it’s on & Bluetooth is active. Can’t recommend it more. For £20 what more could you want. Just buy it.

Good gadget, works and connects well, but unfortunately for me didn't support my car... Which is an issue I'm finding with even the most expensive scanners out there, but for the most of makes and models this works well

Exploring the intricacies of this little gizmo, I found it quite practical with a few quirks along the way. Connecting it to my 2019 Land Rover Discovery Sport was straightforward enough, but be prepared, you'll either stick to the recommended app with its subscription or hunt down alternatives that are VIN-limited. A bit cheeky, that. Now, while it worked flawlessly on my Disco, it threw a strop when trying to connect to an older Megane. Android chums will have a smoother ride over iOS users, who might face compatibility hitches. But there's hope if you're patient. For example, I nearly abandoned ship but found that keeping my phone within inches of the reader finally did the trick. It's a bit like coaxing a cat to behave, honestly. When all is said and done, it does what's on the tin, with a dash of patience.

I read all the reviews for this, across multiple outlets, yet couldn't confirm if this allowed access to more than just the engine control unit. I can confirm that not only does it read and erase fault codes from all of the cars systems (ABS, SRS, alarm, dash, heating etc) but it also allows for programming features. FYI, I'm using this in conjunction with the Car Scanner app, on an android phone, to diagnose faults on my 2017 Skoda Octavia MK3.5 MQB. This eobd dongle is absolutely brilliant, and well worth the money. I managed to turn off my airbag warning light after accidently cycling the ignition with the seats out. I plugged in the dongle, connected over BLE, and had full access to every system available on my car. Had I gone to a garage/dealer, I would be looking at a minimum of a £45 charge just to clear the light. For £22, I now have the capability for the remainder of the life of the vehicle. Just buy it.

I am blown away by how good this little OBD reader is. I’ve seen cheap, stand alone readers at a similar price point be completely unable to read codes. But this reader when used with the Car Scanner app was perfectly capable of reading not just standard OBD codes but manufacturer specific ECU codes with no problems at all.I use it with an iPhone 12 and connecting the device via Bluetooth was extremely easy and connecting to the car was not a problem at all either.Thanks to its small size I can toss it into my cars nearly none existent glove box when I don’t need to use it and it’s always on hand.This is a fantastic bit of kit that pays for itself almost instantly if you’re willing to do even simple repairs on your car.

I wanted this to work with ABRP and an eGolf to show battery %. Because other OBD2 scanners didn't. This one does work which is great. But I am having intermittent connection issues. I can only fix it by removing all my blutooth devices from my phone and rescanning. Which is annoying. However that could be my phone and the eGolf both which are old.

This little device is absolutely brilliant, gives live data (great for bmw 1 series as it has no temperature gauge), finds faults, can clear and delete faults. Easy to set up, easy to use. My only criticism is that it's small, in the sense that it can be tricky to get it out of the port (on my car the port is sunk into the plastics in the foot well) other than that it's fantastic.

This is the second one i have bought as i lost the first one (don't lend out)..As the title say's but i wanted to add for any BMW owners it works with Bimmercode and Bimmertool.Thought this might help others.
