Hi all

Having a brain-fade on the name of the after-market gizmo that plugs into the diagnostic port on your engine and sends info on fuel consumption, engine speeds etc to a little lcd display that you mount in the cabin..have heard them referred to a few times on this forum, have seen them on ebay for about $180, can someone put me out of my misery with what they are called?

Cheers and beers
Rich

Grey hair is hereditary, you get it from children. Baldness is caused by watching the Wallabies.

Be careful before you buy it as they dont fit all models
EG Not my 2005 Croozer TD
THey do however fit some petrol models
The vehicle has to have a OBDII plug

go to www.wooders.com.au

They sell them tell them what you have they will advise if it works

Wish it did it mine but no.

You would need the Toyota version which costs $1800, is only available to Toyota dealers who charge $180 each time they connect it to your vehicle . The information gained cannot be given to you the owner either as it is proprietry.
(all in jest!!)
