Android compatable code readers OBD2

[mykon04]

My check engine light came on the other day and I started looking in to these amazon sold OBD 2 code readers and just not completely sold on the whole thing. If anybody on here has any personal experience with a one could you please share you thoughts on it or let me know if they are worth even messing with.

Thanks.

I`ve had the torque app on my android phone and this obd2 adapter for years. It`s a great app. There`s many youtube video`s showing how they work and all that they can do. It`s worth the $4.99 for the app and under $20 for the adapter.

Thanks squatch,
I did a little searching and read some of the reviews on Amazon but just figured I would ask to see if anyone had any experiences on here.

I've got a BT adaptor from Amazon and Torque Pro. I like it a lot. My gripe is with the BT pairing but that is most likely my older android phone.

I have the torque app and Amazon Bluetooth as well, the first one I ordered had connectivity issues... the replacement they sent works great. So it appears they are hit or miss. But I do love it and won't go back to a standard $50 code reader

I have the same. No issues at all with the app or the adapter
