you can get a cheap tablet, a blue tooth adapter and use torque, or any of the several other apps out there

Cool

I prefer ultra gage. Smaller display but extremely functional and versatile.

Torque app works nicely, about $25 total for the bluetooth adapter and the app. As fast as the Aeroforce gauges and can monitor more variables, also VERY customize-able.

Al obd2 Gage's are the same accuracy as the data streamed from the port. Trans temp is dependent on the vehicle operating system. In other words, it spits out all the data fields all the time. So if the PCM operating system spits out trans data, it can be selected and displayed. The first time you connect to a different vehicle, it scans the protocol and reads all the supported data fields. Then you select what you want displayed and it remembers that vehicle till you unplug ultra gage. Move it to another vehicle and it re-scans for new data fields.

Ultra gauge only reads generic parameters.
