Hey guys!

I've done the "hybrid approach" with Arduino some time ago. Maybe this is interesting for you?

There is a huge description of my project named "DeCANder" in a german forum called blacklandy: https://www.blacklandy.eu/blboard/vb5/node/156965 There are also photos of the madmax-style-setup. (...it still has no housing...)

I tried to get the information i wanted from the data flying around on the CAN BUS - without sending messages to the bus. Data packets have been decoded in reverse engineering. With this data, i even got a fuel consumption display on my device. It has been running stable for about 5 years now.

Code can be looked at on github: https://github.com/posmanet/DeCANder
