Re: link to PCM reader???
wow Hellz, was there a raw nerve that got brushed against when this subject came up?
first off, i assume the RTFM stands for "read the f'n manual"?
ummm yeah, ok
i am sure that the attitude wasnt directed at me.... was it?
anyways the thing is I was just stating that in certain cars you need to reset the oil with the programmer. Maybe not this one, but some
Yes i see your point, you say why get a crappy app for a phone that doesnt serve a purpose, when i should get the tuner.
The thing is there is a big difference here.
Well lets see, last I check the scanner tool is like 15 bucks, and the app is 5-10 bucks. So it comes out to be 25 bucks
So how would saving 25 dollars and putting it towards a 300-400 dollar tuner really save me alot.
Plus this will work with both my cars.
and in the end it does what i need right now and it does it for cheap.
Also, lets put this situation in front of us for the sake of you saying clearing codes is useless.
Do you know that the OBD retains history, and with history in the OBD it still sees it as a code, though not current.
Because of this things are effected by this code that is in history.
Ok so what if your TPS went out for a split second but it never went out again. it would be in the history but it would cause an issue and a mechanic could say oh yeah time to dish out some money for a new sensor.
Meanwhile if you cleared it and 6 months later it never showed the code again......
then ultimately you are the wiser and the richer for know more about your car and not spending money you dont need to spend.
and all this for 25 bucks
BTW, the OBD code reader comes free in the C5+ Vettes, should I not use that in my car and buy a 300-400 tuner to read my codes?
