Is my 2.5 elite odb2 compliant
« on: 14 February 2012, 22:48:25 »
Hi all I hope all is well in land of OOF

If this has been answered already then sorry!!??!!!

I have used a elm 327 BT odb meter before on my 2.5 and it didn't work tried it on a mates worked fine but I've just gone and brought a GS500 Maxiscan from eBay it turned up this afternoon tried it on my car kept saying " linking error" like the Elm so tried it on my mates Zafira 1.8 and works straight away

Why!! Is my 2.5miggy not ODB2 compliant

2001 onwards I believe for OBD2 compliance, paper clips are good enough for general fault code reading prior to this though

pedal test is facelift only, think its 2.2, 2.6 and 3.2 only plus the "dti" diesels

2.5 is NOT OBDII compliant.

The only Omegas that are are 2.6/3.2/2.2
