How do u set degrees celcius or farenheit as I can't do the little circle with my fone for the degrees. Also wats everyone's readings mine seems to be around 82' celcius at idle and cruising around.. that's with an external cooler though

I only started using torque the other day and in half hour city driving my reading was ~88 with std zf.

Also, is there any other way of recording oil pressure without using in-car gauge & adaptor plate? Doesn't look like its on the list of sensors.

Another plug for aeroforce interceptor:

U can add wideband and oil temp/pressure sensor inputs too.

Not sure ill ever need steering wheel angle or tps numbers in my face so will just stick with what ive got

Having a play myself with this today, as Spook corrected himself I found using the ZF temp reading "Transmision Temperature(Method 1)" works on my BF, I tried the custom entry (PID 221674) listed earlier but it had no reading at all.

The predefined list of "custom Ford PIDs" shows "Transmission Fluid Temp" as PID 221674 with the same settings Spook gave originally, but it lists it as °F not °C with that equation.

Haven't gone for a drive and logged anything yet though only idled in garage a couple of minutes.

Best $25 I've spent (app plus dongle). See how long the dongle lives :)

The custom PID didnt work (most likely) as you left the header as Auto, which looks to the PCM. You need the correct header to point it to the TCM, which Trans Temp Method 1 gives ;)

I see! That explains it.

I got this dongle as recommended earlier in the thread as the best of the cheapies I think
