I've been using this software for over a year now and it's great, can't beat $91.50

Does this only allow you to monitor and reset codes or does it allow you to make changes in the cars computer?

The description on the page is kind of vague as to what all it can do.

It looks like it's gone up to $122

I just bought this software (obd-2.com). It doesn't let you change the car's computer...you need LT-1 Edit for OBD2 to do that. I also have a question on this software. In the enhanced mode I am missing info for misfire cylinder 5 and 6 anyone else having this problem?

sherwinZ28:

I haven't had that problem with the cylinder misfire data.

Did you have to enter a username or password or something to be able to connect to your car? I just upgraded my software and now I can't connect, I can't remember if I need to enter a username or something first. Thanks.

Well the first time I had to enter something like that I forget, password or something. I've just been trying to diagnose this problem:

I have a feeling since the enhanced mode isn't showing any misfire tables for cylinder numbers 5 and 6 something must be wrong with the ignition wires or plugs for those cylinders...shows up like this:
misfire cylinder 1
misfire cylinder 2
misfire cylinder 3
misfire cylinder 4
misfire cylinder 7
misfire cylinder 8
misfire history cylinder 1
misfire history cylinder 2
misfire history cylinder 3
misfire history cylinder 4
misfire history cylinder 5
misfire history cylinder 6
misfire history cylinder 7
misfire history cylinder 8
For anyone else that wants to know more info on OBD2 stuff go here:

Also email TunerCat and tell them to come out with their OBD-2 version soon.
