Default 2004 WRX OBD II Standard

Hey guys, im after a bluetooth OBD II thingy so i can wirelessly read the data that it can provide

I was wondering, if any OBD II bluetooth device will work, and if its universal, or if there is some sort of standard of OBD II that i need to make sure i get

Any help would be awesome

Cheers
Glen

I'll post up how it goes when it eventually arrives.

Cheers! Will be awesome! i was talking to a friend, and he said that you have to make sure you get the "right" obd II bluetooth device, apparantly there are a few different types that have different standards, or something along those lines

I have this one

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...d=160701077604

Its awesome, can scan faults, monitor everything available, use it to map your route with all values recorded etc etc

Ive used it on a monaro Captiva rav4, liberty all of various age and they all worked fine.

I have the same one as above. Has worked in several cars fine. I have torque for android to log all my data and scan for faults works really well i would recommend it. I have plans to buy a cheap 7 inch tablet and run torque on it with it mounted in the dash but those plans are on hold until a bit more cash is flowing. I do recommend it, the logging feature is particularly good.

You can get a heap more info about bluetooth adapters on the torque wiki

(long & boring but you get the idea)

Haven't had much time to play with yet, but suprised by the little golf's big numbers, can't wait to try it on the new bi
