Hi, 

 

what obd II protocol supports superb II? Will it work with this device: http://dx.com/p/elm327-v1-5-obdii-bluetooth-auto-car-diagnostic-scan-tool-white-12v-149344 ?

 

Want to try some apps while driving. Heard that these drains the battery while car is off, so looking at one with power button. (Interesting what is power consumption, think it shouldnt be higher than 500mA).

I used the PLX Kiwi one;

Works good, but, costs abit more. And harder to find! You can always try the dx one, won't break the bank.

I bought Scantool MX. more expensive, but there was a bunch of stuff with people having issues getting cheaper ones to work. Universally it seem they are not quick enough for live data feed for apps like Torque.

I couldn't be arsed for trial and error, so went down hassle free but expensive route of MX. You can fit it all of the time, and it doesn't get in the way in the Superb when fitted.

Cheers

Works with both the Superb and mk1 Fabia vRS.
