Hello, just a quick question. Is it worth buying an OBD 2 Bluetooth dongle for the trooper range? My friend has one with the app on his phone, looks handy. Where is the OBD socket?
Cheers  Smile

Not sure if it would work on the Isuzu and yours is a 3.1 so unless its a mk3 bighorn Auto it doesnt even have sensors on the engine.
Why not try your mates, the OBD is up and left near the console drivers side.

Will have to see, like you say not too much on the Diesel anyway. My Bighorn is a 1992 Auto?
Cheers for the reply.

Its hammer and spanner engine, the only ecu as such is the gearbox and you can flashcode that.
I would spend the money on a few beers or an oil change  Cool

I think this is the best one http://www.scantool.net/scan-tools/smart-phone/obdlink-bluetooth.html?from=Torque
There are some on eebuygum for as low as £15! The app is called Torque and is on iPhone & Android £3 for full app. It's got good reviews.
