For a 4.7 grantuismo, any recommendations?
I read "Idiot Proof Reader" as "Idiot Proof" Reader.
Or scanner if I've read that correctly.
I could have completely misread that though.

Well, I am an idiot trog with IT so yes, I will need a scanner/reader for error codes even I could use lol
@allandwf no clues which car my friend until deal is finalised
Was not aware SM was doing one......any idea on timescales?OK!
So the problem is that most of the readers out there will only do the basic OBDII codes relating to the engine management. Everything gets quite spendy.
A few possibilities:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Systems-Special-Functions-Including-Throttle/dp/B06XQFCL42
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Autel-Bluetooth-Scanner-Systems-Diagnoses/dp/B07QCT1PC5
and the yet to be released EasyMas which is being developed with input from the most august forum owner and Sports Italia.
I guess I'd go with the Autel unless I wanted to dump £500+ but I have no idea how idiot proof they are, nor more than apocryphal reports that they manage the functionality they claim.

Most OBD female plugs are rectangular but tapered male OBD plug fits fineHi,
I've got a 2015 Grancabrio which has pinged an amber EML light on the way home from work. I've got a simple OBD2 reader at home which I use for my daily driver but I see that the plug is different on the Mas ? It is a 16 PIN straight plug/socket but OBD2 is not rectangle shaped, please could you tell me, do I need a specific adapter for my car, to enable me to connect up an OBD2 ?
