I have an app for my droid called Torque...it requires a $20.00 gizmo that plugs into your OBD2 port...its bluetooth..it reads your vehicles computer..you can read and clear codes...AND you can can set up digital gauages on your phone for just about any fuction of the vehicles engine...temp..volts...tach..turboboost..pyrometer...etc...so when that check engine light comes on you can read it and clear if need be.....

The problem is that it only reads emissions codes that are mandated by the government. It will not be useful for any codes in the 15 or so other computers in a sprinter. It can be somewhat useful for the gauges, just like a scangauge, but it is not reliable for code readings.

Laredo is horrible right now! Full of expediters and no freight! Even semi drivers are not moving...heard not a lot of freight coming across border. Hoping that changes soon!

Been here since Saturday morning. Only thing moving north is freight on the Union Pacific railroad.

Do you have a Sprinter??? I guess not, cause you wouldn't argue with me if you did.

As,
Nobody peed anywhere. Do I know it all? Far from it, but I know a thing or 2 about sprinters.
But my post was for falligator, so he will not buy what you suggest
thinking he will be able to read all the codes, cause he won't.

Yes, all cars/vans after 1996 have obd2, and no, it will not read all sprinter codes.

The more you argue, the more you show your ignorance on the subject. Like I said, it was a heads up for falligator. I don't have the desire to go back and forth with you, so you can argue by yourself.

Man, I hope you won't break tjp's record. I think it was somewhere around 3 weeks down there.

So I'm finally done with Stoops and they found some sensor that was supposed to open and close was staying open. Headed to yard to get decaling tomorrow.

At the house tonight, with a load going from Louisville > Wayne MI to pick up in the morning.

Sure has been some sweet weather across the middle of America the last few days. Almost makes me not care if I was loaded or not. . .

Picking up north of Detroit in a bit, to Philly in the morning. Then a short run from PA to NJ. Probably head to Bordentown, unless of course, we get a load out ;)
