Sat Nav Map Update - Gen II

[Yeldarb]

It works on any car. You don't need a specific setup for the MPS. It's not as in-depth as a dash hawk, but for stuff like boost, water temp etc etc, it's pretty cool to have there.

My next plan (it's been an old one) is to move to an IPad app, Dash Command. Just need a Kiwi PLX and it's a goer.

That looks really good Brad. How much did you spend on it?

My Queensland trip highlighted how out of date my Sat Nav is, the Pacific Highway was all over the shop and brisbane out to Ipswich had no idea where it was going.

$295 is a freaking rip off tho.

Garmin ecoRoute HD

You'll have to do your research, but a few Garmin devices are compatible with the Ecoroute HD. I bought the Nuvi 1490T as it's a 5" screen.

If youre in the market for a better GPS device, then getting the Ecoroute HD add's some extra functionality.

I bought it PURELY to view and then reset CEL's. It worked. I was getting the same CEL over and over after my DP was installed (P2096). It even tells you what the code means.

BUT, for $450, there are probably better devices out there for car diagnostics if that's all you want it for.

Like I said, Dash Command is made for iPad, it was $60 (for an app ), but I need the KiwiPLX (OBDII to WIFI adapter) to hook it all up.

It theorectically has alot more diagnostic features, inlcuding fuel pressure, which is what I was hoping to capture.

Hope that helped.
