Thank you for providing this video -- it's greatly appreciated! I have been looking for something like this to monitor the health of my car. AAA+++

Thanks for great video!

Hi, thanks for your great video. Notice that some of dials have a blinking green dot. Why some are blinking, some dials are just lighted. Thanks

@YvonSmart Ай бұрын

The blinking dot insures the user that the data reading on that gauge is live (real-time). This way, if there is communication issue with the Bluetooth module, you know that value is no longer accurate because the blinking stops. For those that are just lighted, the reading shows "0" when the module disconnects

Do you have to pay extra for the specific car brand pliug ins? Like Toyota plugin, kia plugin? If so how much extra do they charge?

@YvonSmart 3 ай бұрын

Most plugins are paid, but I don't think they are worth it. Most have bad ratings and to be honest, the default Torque pro app already does everything. I haven't use any downloaded plugin in this video (only the six preinstalled ones)

Hi-, Yvon, are you able to use torque to read abs code? thanks

@YvonSmart 2 ай бұрын

Yes, you can use it to scan for all fault codes. From the home screen, turn the wheel and select "Faults codes", click on the scan icon to scan the connected vehicle the codes. You can save, load, share and search logs. It even supports Freeze frame and allows you to clear fault codes like on a conventional car scanner

Thanks for a great review. Can you make it show your transmission gear selected??

@YvonSmart 3 ай бұрын

It's possible, you just need to lookup the right codes for your car and add them to a custom PID . I couldn't find the codes for that and ended up getting a scangauge 3 that generates all codes automatically. I also reviewed it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mt2nq5ClnpiqZ4k.html

How did you download the torque pro app onto the head unit? Did the unit come with the google play store or did you do a work around? The latest trend is for head units to have android auto with an inability to download to the head unit.

@YvonSmart 5 ай бұрын

Hi, this head unit comes with the google play store and services, I installed the torque pro app without any work around. I could have also downloaded and installed the .APK file from the web. This head unit supports both apple car play and android auto, but is still like an android tablet. Once connected to Wi-Fi, the play store is yours. I made videos of the installation and follow up.

How can i save parametars that i can show to someone where was the problem when it hapoened? Is this possible?

@YvonSmart Ай бұрын

If you mean logging, then yes. You can set up logging by clicking on the gear icon from the home screen, select "settings", then "Data Logging & Upload", "Select what to log". It opens the "log PID manager" page, click "options" on the top right, "Select what to log". It takes you to all you car's sensor gauges and you can select all gauges you want Torque Pro to log and click "OK". They will all be logged and saved in "Log PID manager" page for you to view or share. You can also save engine fault codes. From home screen, select "Fault codes", scan for fault codes, then "Menu", "save fault log" . It also supports freeze frames in the same menu

Can an alarm be set for coolant temp? Good vid by the way

@YvonSmart Ай бұрын

Thanks! Yes, it supports alarms. You can make it say out loud when coolant reaches operating temperature in "settings/Speech & Alarms settings". Custom alarms can also be set for each gauge in "settings/manage alarms/menu/add alarm"

how did you get Emissions Readiness?

It's on the pages by default after installing the app, but if you don't have it, long press the grey area; "Item options" will pop up. Select "Add display", scroll down the list and click on "Emissions Monitors" and you can adjust the size and the placement

Do you think this would work with Android Auto or CarPlay? I have wireless CarPlay in my truck.

@YvonSmart 2 ай бұрын

if you are asking if the Torque Pro app can work on your head unit, I think so. If it is Android based like mine you can download the "TorquePro.apk" file from the internet and install it

@chrismortensen4183 2 ай бұрын

@@YvonSmart So it looks like in your video you have a non oem head unit. In my truck I just have the factory head unit. It does wireless carplay. I'm just wondering if the Torque App is compatible with Carplay so it'll project up on the screen or if I would have to use a USB or something like that.

@YvonSmart 2 ай бұрын

@@chrismortensen4183 Got you, Android auto and Apple car play only project a few select apps like GPS, Music player, contact, weather, etc. Unfortunately the Torque pro app will not project. But you can still use a separate phone to monitor the gauges

@Rob-eg8qc Ай бұрын

Had the pro version for a few years now, great for checking eml fault codes problems and reset , also set alarms for high coolant and oil temperatures, revs, speed etc, good to check the aircon pressures, fuel usage, battery voltage . All engine sensors and any misfires on each cylinder.

Can y change the name of a display? Lets say "Transmission Temp" from "Trans 1"

@YvonSmart Ай бұрын

You can rename a display by long press, select "Display Configuration", Then "Change title". For some reason, custom PIDs stop working when you rename them as titles are written into the ECM and has to match for indexing
