I wouldn't recommend a garage outfit using these, but for the occasional user, thats 20x £10 ones for the same price. Can't see going through 20 of them in my lifetime. Craig Rogers 2007 Puma 110 XS 2011 Evoque Coupe Dynamic Lux www.craigrogers.photography |

This looks great but I have an older 1999 td5 I'm guessing it won't work with that?

Not sure that your's will be OBD2, if not, it won't work unfortunatly. Craig Rogers 2007 Puma 110 XS 2011 Evoque Coupe Dynamic Lux www.craigrogers.photography |

It won't work for any live data from the TD5, the standard codes may be able to be read but that is it.

the wifi ones work better with iphone (unless you have a jailbroken one) as the iphone bluetooth is very restricted.

Mine arrived today but I don't seem to be able to connect to it.
I am using an HTC phone and torque pro on an 07 Puma. With the interface device in the socket and the ignition on, I get a "paired but not connected" status from the Bluetooth manager and torque says that it isn't connected to the OBDII device. Nothing I do seems to make a working connection. Any ideas anyone? Faulty device? Faulty socket? I did try it also on my 02 Td5 Disco knowing it may not work but thinking it should at least power the device and allow pairing but it is exactly the same as on the Puma. Any help gratefully received, thanks. |

Ok, cancel the SOS! Just fiddled about some more and it's started working. I didn't do anything different and I suspect it may have been caused by a poor connection in the socket or something like that.
A great little tool for £13 or so! |

I had the same issue. You must go into Torque > Settings > Device and then select the device, which must already be paired with your phone. -- 2010 Defender Puma 90 + BAS remap + Alive IC + Slickshift + Ashcroft ATB rear 2015 Range Rover Sport V8 Supercharged Defender Puma Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zZ1en9 Discovery 4 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zXrtKO Range Rover/Sport L320/L322/L494 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zc58JQ |

No, not me....I looked on the interweb, but couldn't find any evidence it would work....

Yeah, the Td5 is a funny one. AFAIK, only the Hawkeye and Nanocom work with it. -- 2010 Defender Puma 90 + BAS remap + Alive IC + Slickshift + Ashcroft ATB rear 2015 Range Rover Sport V8 Supercharged Defender Puma Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zZ1en9 Discovery 4 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zXrtKO Range Rover/Sport L320/L322/L494 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zc58JQ |
