    Don't waste money on cheap OBD-II adapters. I paid for a better quality adapter which has not caused problems with my Mirage.

    I have an Ultraguage, which is just slightly less compatible than the Scanguage. The dealership gives me a hard time about it because it makes the car throw codes in the oil change process...

    Other than the codes, it works perfectly...

    Dirk may be the only one that gets this, but by the thread title, I thought this was about the Wu-Tang Clan....
