Car fault codes are useful, but they are often confusing if you are not a mechanic.

This beta is built for everyday drivers and car enthusiasts who want a clearer first look at engine and powertrain fault codes before speaking to a garage or doing more research.

Connect a Bluetooth OBD dongle, scan the car, and get the codes explained in plain English.

The aim is not to replace a mechanic. The aim is to make fault codes easier to understand.

This beta app helps everyday drivers and car enthusiasts understand engine and powertrain fault codes more clearly.

Connect a Bluetooth OBD dongle, scan your car, and the app retrieves fault codes from the vehicle. It then creates a simple report with plain-English explanations, including what the codes may relate to and what sensible next steps might be.

It is limited to engine and powertrain codes in this beta, and it is not a replacement for a mechanic. It is designed to give you a clearer first look before speaking to a garage or doing more research.

We’re open to feedback, ideas, and feature suggestions from Bluetooth OBD users. Try the beta, tell us what is useful, what is missing, and help shape the app into something drivers and enthusiasts actually want to use.
