    I don't think so because I don't think the standard ECU records that data. Most have to add a sensor in-between the engine and the oil filter.
     
  2. new wheels

    Just got the wheels back from refurb......well happy how they have came out!

    At the moment it's a phidget display and interface board hooked up to my macbook via usb and then an OBDII to my macbook with usb. Then a python program running making it read the data and display it.

    Last night I started setting up my Raspberry Pi ready to be fitted. It will sit somewhere behind the dash or in the glove box and the display either replacing the normal radio display up top or I'll make a plate and fit it below the stereo.

    Was looking at the Arduino displays last night as well as a few people I know have asked if I would make them one. I'm only using this Phidget display as I got it free (retail is £100).
     
  31. Picked up my spare set of freshly powder coated R26 wheels, done in satin black.
    Very impressed with the finish and Metal Magic in Barnsley did me a great price, just mention the forum :smile:

  33. Picked my car up from the garage.

    Offside hub and hub bearing replaced.
