Scangauge II was $80 on Amazon- sold out

Can this version be programmed for the trans temp?

 

I don't think so. The reviews say it's not as intuitive as the regular scan gauge.

 

the green scan gauge only displays two readings.

 

Mine is still in the box
Never used it. Will probably sell it since i dont really need it in the new vehicle.

 

we need to talk

 

Didn't you sell your ultragauge to buy a scan gauge?

 

Is this an intervention? Or a whatcha want for it?

 

Is there a way to look at oil temp on the SGII?

 

yes

 

i have two toyotas that need it

 

I posted something back in this thread or you can go to their website. Either way, you can monitor the oil. I believe it follows the water temp very closely, so I stopped monitoring it.

 

Trans temp 1 and 2 are good to know. It is getting cold here and I like to take it slowly until the tranny warms up.

For that alone it's worth it to me.

Used it a few times on the old Subaru to check fault codes, that is also ok.

Not sure about anywhere else, but the Scangauge II hasn't really budged price wise on Amazon since July.

 

I ran a block heater and tranny heater (manual) on mine. I plugged it in on a timer only when temps were below 20 overnight. It helped the clutch not feel like jello in the morning. I only used it a couple times before i sold the truck.

 

Woah woah woah. They make a tranny heater for us? That'd be amazing because my tranny drives a little rough the first 5 minutes or so.

 

No it wasnt a tranny heater, exactly. It was one of those stick on heating pads. I used the 150watt one and sealed around it real good with some high temp rtv sealer so water couldnt get up in there and mess with the sticky stuff. The block heater was only like 450 watt so i tied them in together and ran it through one plug that i mounted in the bed with a marine grade plug. Looked pretty good. And helped a lot on those few real cold days in january

 

Huh, interesting. I may have to read more into this later on depending how it does in the cold.

 

If youre interested let me know ill try to find the one i bought. Its likely in my Amazon history. I buy tons of crap on there.

 

The block heater i got off ebay. It was an oem toyota one.

 

Thanks man, I'll keep that in mind. And I'm the same way with Amazon! You can get a spending report in excel format, and I think I've spent almost $20k there since I signed up

 

Yeah i remember doing that recently. I have been a member since jan 2007 and i think i am over 16k
