X-Gauge
« on: September 22, 2010, 09:46:59 PM »

If I fit a X-Gauge in my forfour will it work ?
I know it works on 450's after a certain age (2002 I think) and Roadies, but I havent heard of any one fitting one to a forfour.

As far as I know, I don't think so.....think they are vehicle specific...

A ScanGauge II will.......!!

Or any wifi OBD reader with iPhone app - yummy yummy ! !

Thanks guys, it was just a thought. I've got my old 450 clock in the celler and thought i could get a X-Gauge and fit it....
I'll save up for some dash pods instead !

Dam..i just bought a new clock for my friends 450....I could've poss saved money and bought yours off you.
Stick it up for sale in the Smart parts section....It may get you some money towards those dash pods.

I like the idea of a scanguage and have toyed with one for the ST but I wondered whether it was just an expensive gadget once the novelty has worn off. What are your honest thoughts?

But that's just my opinion!

I've only 'played' with it a bit...but found it useful so far. Am glad I got it.....nothing else compares on price and ease of finding
some place to mount it.  I'd have got one even if I had had to pay full price. Eventually I may get 'tired' of it.....but at the mo
it meets my requirements.  I'll give an update if things change.....
