For iPhone you only real option is DashCommand and a wifi OBD2dongle off eBay. Or a Kiwi system...same difference. Much pricier.
I used the DashCommand logs in ScanXL, the PC software made by the same people (Palmers).
Still waiting for someone to come up with a way to read more PIDs from Leons because as it stand, the amount of things you can read is a bit poor
So you don't recommend me getting one then for the iPhone?
I only want to read fault codes.
Oh it'll do just fine for fault codes
DashCommand 30 quid + 15 quid wifi dongle. Sorted
Judging by your username, you might be near me...in which case I can do code readings for you if you want to spare the cash

i got torque pro to work on wifi
cleared the Egr error
the device plugged into the obd port will be on, so will have to unplug it every time
i guess the current consumption is so low that can remain plugged for a few days without problems.
if one uses the car everyday shouldn't be a problem because battery get's charged in a few minutes to full

I know in my Mk1 LCR (a long time ago when Torque first came out) I had to manually adjust the boost reading by 14.7PSI (ie atmospheric pressure) it then read the correct boost all day long. Was quite good for seeing boost spikes etc.
not used it for a while since I moved to apple - the Wifi dongles were all really expensive back then, they seem to have come down in price a lot!
last nite we took the Cupra for a speed test and we had problems with the connection, the ELM keep disconnecting from the phone, i dont know why, we only did connect to it for a few minutes then connection dropped
on my FR instead works for hours
in dash command i had wifi connect to the elm then to put IP 198.168.0.10 to make the program work
otherwise it doesnt see the elm
after that it works, and now asks me to pay it

Ok I have my OBD2 reader and the dash command app but can't get it to work . It connects up to my iPhone ok but nothing works on the screen apart from the battery voltage dial. ??
Anyone have an idea ?
I have the same one as this. From what I can tell it won't work on an iPhone. U need android mate
This is the link for it which says it works with the iPhone http://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e1140...0&exe=10014&ext=100027sojTags=exe=exe,ext=ext
Like I say it does connect up but nothing works apart from the volt meter and I think it can read fault codes .

dash commander shows me all details
