Great new toy! OBD2 Tool
When I was having problems with the SES light with the Borla System, I ordered this, I have to say, VERY COOL. You can see all the codes, reset them, it's great! You can even have realtime data being displayed. Hell, they even have a Palm Pilot Version!

I don't work for them, but, a great product.

wow.. this is very cool.... I might have to get one of these... now where do we plug the connection in our car? Is it somewhere inside the passenger cabin? And does the program automatically display realtime data even when you're driving the car?
I've always wanted something on the M5 similar to what they have on the Skyline GTR R34 display screen... now if this company can improve on the the graphical interface, it would be perfect!

Under the steering wheel
Yes, it displays real time data when driving!! Rpms, Speed, O2 information, everything. You can even "Record" a session, then "Play" it back later!
