Description

Vgate iCar3 BLE is an ELM327-compatible Bluetooth OBD-II adapter for 12V petrol and diesel cars with a 16-pin OBD2 port. It works with iOS and Android apps such as Torque and OBD Car Doctor.

Typical functions with an OBD-II app: read and clear generic and manufacturer-specific trouble codes, turn off the check engine light (MIL), live sensor data (RPM, speed, coolant temperature, engine load, fuel trims, MAP, throttle position, O2 sensors and more), fuel consumption, data logging and graphs.

The adapter only provides the vehicle connection; the diagnostic app is chosen by the user. Some apps (or their advanced functions) are paid and are not included. Coverage depends on the vehicle and the app.
