Finally found my bluetooth OBD2 reader so I could hook it up with the Torque Pro app and was disappointed...

Was hoping I'd see a readout for the oil temp / pressure or at least water temp but that would be a no go.

Also tried any and every was possibly that I could think of to make the readout display on our center screen but that led to another disappointment. Searched everywhere online and on YouTube as well but couldn't find details on how to make it work for ours. There's videos showing the FK2 making it work using CMdroid but I wasn't able to make that work either. Anyone else tried to make this work yet and have any luck?

Anyone have plans to install some external gauges for the readouts we don't have access to from the ECU? I don't really want to slap some on the pillar, so it'll be interesting to see what some of the aftermarket guys come up with for other placement options.

Not even water temp? That is disappointing indeed.

Finally someone found the "passcord" to developer mode.
There is a CAN bus connected to the head unit. Maybe someone will write an app for that.

The FK2 has an oil temp sensor (located in the oil level gauge) bottom of oil pan... the FK8 (US version) does NOT have that sensor. The UK version will...
