So, I checked out the shell, I had no idea it would request the available pids after setting up the connection, that’s quite convenient. I took a picture of the output.
No luck for the fuel level though, it’s not supported over OBD2.
I’ve been reading quite a lot and if I’m not mistaken the protocol used by the Passat 3B5 is ‘KWP-1281’, a proprietary VW one. Will this cause problems? Do I need a specific adapter for it?
The Ross-Tech software is apparently still popular for VAG cars, and OBDEleven seems to be the new kid on the block. If I understand things correctly, they are mainly interesting if you want to change things, e.g. enable/disable certain features?
