flybywire Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Have been trying to read the OBD11 from a 2006 Legacy 3.0 R spec B without success. Have so far tried a cheap £30 reader from eBay as well as a Elm 327, all without success. The cheapy does not link and the Elm connects but does not display any data when using computer. :( Does anyone have a recommended reader that works with the Subaru that will not break the bank - something that will read and clear engine codes. would love a full blown reader that reads auto box and ABS codes but probably out of my reach. Saying that, any recommendations? Thanks all, Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
