I have recently added dash command as my go to app for obd. However there is information in which the app would run better knowing. Maximum and minimum engine speed, axle ratio, gear ratio. It the 6 speed transmission. If you also use dash command and have any cool set ups or layouts I would appreciate suggestions and sharing.

Also thanks for the info.

How well does this work as an OBD-II reader? Is is there a better app for that? (Using Automatic)

Try the Piston app (I know, how ironic). It's very simple, easy to read at a glance while driving, and connects in 2 presses of a button. DashCommand takes far too much work for same, if not less reward.

All of your posts are worthless to the threads they're in.

Sorry we can't all be superheros.... what a community of brothers this is. No wonder why 8 owners have such a bad rap.

Hopefully this isn't a stupid question.

I have a 2003 auto. I am trying to get DashCommand set up and I was wondering if you have to put any numbers in the gear ratio for an AT, or is this just there for manual transmissions.

Thanks in advance.
