PLX Kiwi OBD Wifi device on a C32 AMG
Dear all,
I would like to install a boost gauge to monitor the superchargers status, but understand that the A pillar pod is not a good choice to C32, finally I check there are some OBD connected device can connect to C32. The one Kiwi having a reasonable price but not much information about it.
Did anyone connect a Kiwi OBD wifi device to a C32?
1) what real time data can be seen ? Intake temp and boost?
2) fault code diagnostic can be done too ? Can erase the code too?
3) the response time of the real time data is fast and smooth?
Because, I search on Internet, most of the Kiwi are connect to the Japanese car, I am not sure if it can fit out C32

I use a cheap ebay OBD-II PLX Device with Torque on my Android and it's pretty sufficient. I can get IAT, Boost and lots of other information. ANd yeah you can read and clear faults.

Wilsophia, google the app and read about it. I feel we've given you enough information to get started, no one is going to do your research for you.
Robert, it's the OBD Fault Check option in the app that reads and stored CEL's.

Chris,
Thx for reply first of all, I have th apps in my iPhone already and understand how much or what info can be shown. But don't know what information can the C32 ECU can provide to the Kiwi. That is my point!
