Looking to purchase a Scan Tool // Code Reader one and if possible has to be eBay or a company to send to Australia As GMH can't do a read on a Camaro

Given where you are at, lack of full time support,and appearance your not a tuner. I would recommend you buy an SCTX4. With this you will have the ability to do what you were asking + datalog and install remote tunes. You can call Ted at Jannetty Racing or Dynosteve and there are others. I’m sure they will help you for the price of a phone call or email. BTW nice car.

OBDLink makes great stuff for cheap, no need to buy something incredibly expensive.

I use BlueDriver -- gives you access to ABS and other items too.
https://www.bluedriver.com/buy-now Home Page: https://www.bluedriver.com/ Ships international, works with IPad, IPhone, Android: On my IPad: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showpo...postcount=1664 What's great is the freeze frame -- will save the status of the sensors, etc. when MIL goes off! Can do 'live' readings also -- very nice unit -- they keep updating its capabilities. I do have a Tech II but this is so easy and quick to use... Here are some videos from them: https://www.bluedriver.com/videos 24/7 support too... -Don

I just ordered the BlueDriver unit from Amazon based on it's reviews and ability to read most modules and not just ECM.

I used the blue driver to fix my ABS code. Really like it...
Airbag module is the only one it does not read -Don

I'm disappointed to see that BlueDriver does not support the Torque app - which I was hoping to use as it interfaces well with Harry's lap timer, etc... I might switch to OBDLink instead. Has anyone tried both and can compare?
