    Hi. So i have a obd1 1993 vr6 running in my mk2 golf with the obd port attached . When i attach my Bluetooth obd device it connects but the software i use for my mk4 golf doesnt connect to the ecu.

    Does anyone know of an android app that will connect to earlier cars like mine?

    Thanks
    G

    It won't work because it's not OBD2 compliant

    I think the cheapest way of doing it is VCDS lite on a lap top with the cheapy Ebay KKL cable

    I have OBD eleven dongle for Android, not sure it will work as same reason - not supporting OBD1. Ask them on their website or where ever https://obdeleven.com/en

    Do you have the 16 pin connector or the old 2x2?

    Cheers for that gvk. I have the 16 pin connector. I mesaged obd11 earlier, lets see what they say.

    Failing that i will use the laptop and cable.

    If you get a cheap cable, make sure it works with whatever Windows you use. There's a recent thread on here with the info.
