Diagnostic Reader Hire/borrow/Help..

[dominic]

Hi everyone,

Just wondered if anyone had a reader I could use? If you could come over and plug it etc?

Car isn't road worthy therefor can't drive it to a sponsor to have them do it. 

Would give you beers/money. 

(live in Cheltenham.Vic)

Thanks

Dominic

Another option is to get a unregistered vehicle permit for a few days.
You can buy the permit from VicRoads over the phone for about $40.
They email you the permit.

Cheers

I did think about it. 

Car is not drivable, (for such a distane.)

Just hoping someone will have one and wouldn't mind poping over. 

Thanks,

Dominic.

Hey Dominic, you want to borrow a code reader that plugs into the on board dianostic 2 plug, this still won't get your car going, it may tell you what the problem is, is this what you are trying to do?, Colin.

Car is runing, the engine management light is on..

(Car was in a low speed bump) and is in the process of been fixed. 

Just wondered why the management light is on...

Thanks, 

Dominic.

hi there
i have a portable one, but it depends what year mdl urs is. i think it reads 2002 onwards could be 2001. pretty easy to use

[dominic]

It's a 2005 2.0 147. 

Pre face lift model. 

That would be awesome if I could borrow it or you do it. 

Thanks.

I am in Cheltenham and have a basic OBDII reader you are welcome to.  May not fix the problem but it could give you a hint.  In thepast it has helped me identify failing coils for eg.
