Hi

Just trying out the basic Torque (for the moment) and have a problem. Setup is:

Landrover Freelander 2, MY 2011.
Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.3
This BT adaptor, sourced off Amazon: http://tinyurl.com/pmpb89g

With the engine on Torque makes the BT connection OK, however

a) there's a notification 'Connected to OBD interface, querying' that doesn't go away

b) Torque only displays data from the PDA's internal sensors, doesn't display any OBD data, not even RPM.

Do I have a faulty adaptor ? (I deliberately chose one which was, by Chinese standards, expensive and had good reviews)

If not, what could the problem be ?

Thanks

Brian

I would bet it is a faulty connector. It either works or it doesn't. We're you able to pair the two via Bluetooth? If so, faulty adapter. It looks like one of those "Chinese" adapters.

I got this one because it was "known good" to work with Torque. But don't know if this seller will ship to the UK.
