I've only used it a handful of times but its always nice to have around.

The link for the app in the android market.

https://market.android.com/details?i...l.torque&hl=en

Can't beat it for the price as far as I am concerned.

+1 for torque

Don't make the same mistake I did and buy the $50 OBD2-BT adapter. It's that cheap for a reason, and it isn't a good one
