_Matt_ 32 Posted February 23, 2018 Hi, I found my scanning port under the gear leaver but I was expecting to see the 2x2 port. I've instead got the 16 pin OBD port instead. The car is a 95 VR6 - does this mean the car is OBD2? What's the difference between the ports/OBD types? I am looking to buy a scanning tool so unsure if this makes any difference to the tool i buy. My other car is a '13 Seat Exeo 170 which i would also like to be able to use the tool for too. Cheers, Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swiftkid 1 Posted February 23, 2018 No, all VR6's have the 16 pin and all Corrado are OBD1, unless you've upgraded to OBD2 :cheers: Most of the bluetooth OBD2 type readers won't work, fairly sure before I went OBD2 I couldn't get my ELM to work but the blue wired ebay obd2 vagcom jobbies do work with vagcom/vcds lite.

fendervg 32 Posted February 23, 2018 Early VR6s have the 2x2 connector - I think the change-over happened about the same time as coil packs were used instead of distributors. All are OBD1 however. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Matt_ 32 Posted February 23, 2018 Thanks guys. I need to now find a suitable scanning tool, I think i just want to read codes and not worried about changing settings. More research to do! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted February 23, 2018 OBDeleven works. A Corrado is for life, not just for the MOT. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Matt_ 32 Posted February 23, 2018 Cheers Mat, i've just watched a youtube vid by the HumbleMechanic on the OBDeleven and was wondering if it would work for me - so cheers for the heads up :) Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
