Received my iSaddle today. Took me a few tries to get it linked via bluetooth, but it's working great so far. My F22 isn't in yet, used it on my pops Benz. Was able to clear the misfire code. I'll probably leave it plugged in to see if it throws any codes while the engine is running. I spoke with a service rep at Benz and they told me the misfire code is normal and it usually goes away, but mines didn't. So I'm a little confused about that.

stupid question, but do you guys just leave these plugged in, with it open and exposed? I guess there's no way to hide them if you keep it plugged in the whole time so you can get the oil temp readings among other things.

I have the Scantool. About a year now. Use with my Android and has been flawless for every use. I also leave it permanently plugged in and I have had any battery issues.

I keep it plugged in, with an old g5 samsung cell phone on a vent mount. Remember to turn off the phone or it will drain quickly. I use the isaddle BT with torque pro and only get temps in the screen that lists everythting like a log. What did you choose for those graphs? Operating temperature seems to be around 130-140f. I watched the oil temp increase while trying to run the check oil level in IDrive to validate. I have this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ilpage_o06_s00

Scan Tool OBD device
Does anyone know if these devices clear CEL's from lets say a downpipe in the same way a JB4 does? I have the ScanTool 427201 OBDLink and it's working great!

I just got the OBDLink LX Bluetooth about four days ago. I got it because it's supposed to not drain the battery. So far so good. I plugged it into the car, paired it with the Torque app and there is my oil temp and coolant temp!
