OBD and other Diagnostic funda

But In Swift Vdi the SGII does not work. So, most probably UG will also not work.

That is why I'm leaning toward MPGuino.

UG should work for i20 - because it worked for i10. Search and you'll get the links.

If you are interested in a Scangauge E - contact me.

i own a i20 asta petrol.I am looking for a OBD software prefrebly a laptop based one and not the ones which use a scanner. where can i find one in mumbai? plz help.

in another case,i want to get my car tuned.where can i get that done? i want a reliable and professional establishment to get it done.

thanks a lot and pl help me out.

Well, there is no "OBD software" that can interface directly with the car as such. Whatever is there, is there in the scanner and any OBD software that runs in the laptop will basically communicate with the scanner via a COM or USB port. There are many free software programs available to use on a laptop once you purchase a scanner (www.scantool.net offers software bundled with the scanner) - but in terms of INR the prices are rather high, IMO. Plus availability in India is rare.

However be aware that there is no regulation in India that makes OBD compliance mandatory...so cars sold in India might not be compliant - even though they have the typical 16-pin OBD D-type connector. This connector can be used to have proprietary diagnostics instead of the OBD standard...and in India, obviously puts manufacturers in a position of advantage where they can hide as much info as possible about the diagnostics so that nobody else but only them can do anything useful with the diagnostics!
