Well that didn't work!

Post by jv6cdx »

I bought an ELM 327 code reader after being told by the vendor it would work with my car.

No such luck !!!

Is there ANY known code reader I can buy, that will talk to the 2000 model HDi?

I don't want to pay for a one off code read, it's a false economy, given I do everything DIY. I really want at minimum to be able to read and reset - and ideally some live data readings.

Is there ANY known kit I can buy to do the codes on this car? What interface is it? :(
