Vgate iCar 2 WiFi EOBD OBDII OBD 2 car interface diagnostics, android, IOS, windows

I’m very impressed with this little gadget.I’d already downloaded the app “car scanner” from the Apple App Store in preparation.I plugged it into the ODB2 socket on my car and started the car. Straight away I saw the units wifi and joined it with my phone.I fired up the app and it worked instantly no real setup required, just had to select the Volvo profile in the app and off it went.I looked in the error logs of my car and saw I had an EGR problem so now don’t have to pay a dealership for a scan.I can’t find a fault with this product.This all worked with my iPhone XS Max on iOS 12.1.2 with my 2014 Volvo XC60

Vgate iCar 2 WiFi EOBD OBDII OBD 2: works well and easy to connect to the wifi signal, valuable in reading leaf spy

Too complicated dont buy No support when you have a problem

This will not clear all, but is handy to keep in car at all times, you never know when you might need something cleared to get you home, this will usually do the trick

I have had two different BLUETOOTH odb dongle/ scanners before this one. One of which was the same manufacturer/brand as this wifi version (but it was bluetooth).I tried to get the bluetooth to work. I tried on two different phones and an iPad. I have a degree in IT!! All of them failed. It was not me. They just didn't work. Either it was the obd dongle or it was the phones/iPad. Or something was "off" with the protocol. Who cares? Which ever way it did not work.Really long story short?: Get the wifi version (of the vGate / iCar) and not the bluetooth version. Your mileage may differ. Good luck!

This adaptor caused me very big problems on Bimmercode.The unit has VERY slow COM rate (300b/s typ) which may actually be the cause my serious problems.It Reads OBDC OK on both BIMMERCODE and BIMMERLINK but very slow - but then has big problems writing over OBDC.I had very MAJOR issues using this adaptor as it corrupted my BODY ECU and then failed to restore from backup - both issues due to sporadic comms dropouts?Fortunately I could fix with a friends help otherwise this was a £500+ dealer visit!!!I'm not sure if this is a fundamental problem with product design or my particular unit?I will return and retry on a replacement unit.

Used this with Bimmercode to do some coding on a BMW 1 Series (F20) and a BMW i3. Solid connection to phone and hence to car. Does the job it advertises. Advertised on Bimmercode website as recommended and compatible. Don't buy a Chinesium clone which probably won't be compatible

I didn't like it much. There's not a lot you can do with the free version of the app. I ended up using it a couple of times with no results and getting frustrated.
