The display itself does not have nor needs to have access to canbus, the display is connected to the head unit through a HSD 6 pin (4+2) cable that carries power on the 2 pins and video data on the 4 pins. The display does not run CarPlay or anything else on it, it is simply an LCD, now on the...

S So traditionally you would send the data from a Bluetooth OBD2 dongle, which won’t be able to access all the data. If only OBD2 PIDs are sufficient for you then this is very much doable. But if you want all the data, you would still need to build a custom Bluetooth board with dual can...

You would still need a custom board with dual can controllers if you want to tap into all the data, otherwise it’s possible with enough effort. another option is to create a HDMI-LVDS bridge and hijack the video signal to the screen, but information on current gen LVDS protocol for the screen...

the 2.0s and also the new 330s come with the b46. whats the confusion, genuinely curious about your question, i know a bit about these engine so i can maybe answer it.

PARKING LOTS DONT WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS ONE SIMPLE TRICK

Damn that sucks sorry this happened to you, one insight i can offer about the ticking sound is when you overfill the tank (which you should never do), if after the gas station pump stops, and you keep clicking the handle to fill more, the breather diaphragm for the fuel tank will make a clicking...

What a great deal, anyone with a 21+ should just sell their car and buy yours lol

mostly powertrain data used by the ECU itself for managements which is very fast and highly accurate, but also driver input things like Brake Position %, Throttle Position (RAW) and other things a lot of track guys need.. Enhanced PIDs also include a lot of the same things OBD2 includes, but...

that would require me redesign the whole hardware, my product design is basically fully based on the screen I am using, if I change the screen I have to change everything, also it’s ok I have already REd the back bezzel and that’s actually good because I can make different designs in the future.

I like how the rectangular screen looks, makes my round gauge look like a toy :( but I did have an idea to add a rectangular vertical screen to the right side of the idrive screen at a slight angle facing the driver.

Lmaooo “you think you’ve crossed every t and dotted every i until the internet proves you wrong. Had no idea these existed, I did so much work in reverse engineering the back bezzel Lmaoo. my screen is a different size or else I would literally use this.

just saw the VADPro VAD32. Honestly I had no idea this type of design exists. this one looks like it might actually not be OBD2. Thanks for the heads up, but had no idea anyone had thought of the screen bezzel idea lol.

These gauges are limited to OBD2 data.. if you are looking for more comprehensive data metrics, power train data, driver input data, you need something that can access PT-CAN and D-CAN. Any data device that does not splice into BOTH can modules in the passenger footwell, will be limited in what...

I can and probably eventually will, but that won’t do any good to anyone as the software will be based on my custom PCB, this isn’t something that can work on a bare raspberry pi, I will provide diy kits in the future though.

Thanks man! I actually stumbled upon your and TYRFRYRs spreadsheet, have been looking through it, when I start sniffing, I’ll update the sheet too. I am planning for data logging, track features, draggy like features, will be adding a accelerometer,super accurate GPS module and other things...

Thank you

Oh yea! ill try my best to make the data as customizable as possible, it might not be fully fleshed out when it launches, but i have plans to support this long term and will release updates for it. working on UI for embedded devices is a pain in the A**, but i think i have found a very good...

Thanks, Means a lot!

reliability is key in this thing, I am literally building it from ground up for reliability, from choosing robust automotive rated components to making sure it has a sturdy and OEM+ look and feel. As far as displaying ALOT of information, that is the reason why i chose to have 2 CAN...

What's up everyone! I'm super excited to share a project that's been my focus lately: a custom automotive gauge system for the MKV A90 Toyota Supra. This is more than a weekend DIY – I've invested serious effort, finalizing the schematic design and PCB layout, and now, I'm eagerly awaiting the...
