Cheap enough in case it doesn't do totally what you want.

i have an ELM327 Mini Blue Tooth OBD2 dongle but it does not have oil pressure.


I checked with my Durametric and the engine monitors Oil Temp, but not the pressure.

The Oil pressure is arguably the most important thing to know about your engine, since any fault with the oil will eventually destroy your engine.

It just causes too much paranoia amongst consumers so they ave idiot lights.

I was tricked the other day by a yellow indicator symbol that looked like what I thought would be oil presure. after a few nervous moments I discovered from the manual that it is the Low wiper fluid....sheesh, scared me thinking all my fun was coming to an end.

That is when I realized that there is no Oil pressure monitoring, just a pressure switch that turns on the idiot light when you have reached a critically low or no pressure.
