Hi will any of these work on a 3.2 please

The cheapy autel might. Pedal trick is more reliable for engine codes.

A 3.2 is OBD compliant, so any OBD 11 reader - from a £5 dongle and free app on your phone through to a several hundred £ tool - should give provide all of the compliant features. But it's only applicable to the engine and doesn't provide all of the factory level features. That's enough to do most of what a DIYer needs.

I use a £15 bluetooth dongle and 'scanmyopel' on my Android phone.

It reads codes and live data for engine, gearbox and ABS/traction control in 2.6 & 3.2 Omegas.

Opel and Vauxhall Omegas are actually EOBD compliant, not ODBII.  The 2 standards are so desperately close, normally they can be deemed the same, but you do get the occasional issue.

TBH, its very rare that a generic OBDII reader can't read and reset codes on a 2.6/3.2 Omega, unlike, say, the 2.2 which does trip up many OBDII readers.


It will obviously only do the engine, rarely the TCM, and never anything else.
