CarCoding vs Check Engine Codes by Motorvet

CarCoding is a vehicle fault diagnosis and ECU coding app for ELM327 OBD2 scanners. Read and clear fault codes, view live data, reset service indicators, inspect used vehicles, and unlock hidden features — all in one OBD2 app. Plug in a Bluetooth (BLE) or Wi-Fi adapter, connect to your vehicle's control units in seconds. Find out why the check engine light is on, clear fault codes, watch live data, unlock hidden features. ▸ OBD2 DIAGNOSTICS • FAULT CODE READING AND CLEARING (DTC) Read and clear OBD2 fault codes — standard P-codes plus manufacturer-specific B, C and U codes. Engine, transmission, ABS, airbags and body modules in a single scan. Descriptions in plain language. • AI FAULT ANALYSIS What does "P0420" mean? Built-in AI explains the likely cause, urgency and what to check first — no jargon. • LIVE ENGINE ANALYSIS Measure fuel trim and oxygen sensor response at idle and under load; the app diagnoses vacuum leaks, fuel supply issues and sensor faults from the numbers. • USED CAR CHECK AND INSPECTION READINESS Were fault codes cleared before sale? Permanent fault codes, readiness monitors and distance driven since codes were cleared on one screen. Mode 06 tests give early warning before a fault code is set. ▸ LIVE DATA AND GAUGES • DIGITAL GAUGE PANEL Track RPM, coolant temperature, oil temperature, boost pressure, fuel trim and battery voltage in real time. Design your own gauges, record drives, export OBD2 logs. • TRIP COMPUTER AND PERFORMANCE TEST Real-time and average fuel consumption, trip cost, distance and speed summary. Measure 0-100 km/h, quarter-mile and braking tests on closed track. • BATTERY, HYBRID AND DPF HEALTH Check battery health from the voltage drop while cranking. Battery status on hybrids and EVs; DPF differential pressure, regeneration status and AdBlue level on diesels. ▸ SERVICE RESET AND MAINTENANCE • OIL, EPB, DPF, SAS AND TPMS RESET Oil change reset, electric park brake (EPB) service mode, DPF regeneration, steering angle sensor (SAS) calibration and TPMS reset — with pre-flight RPM and voltage checks. • ACTUATOR TEST AND EXTENDED SENSORS On supported models, start and stop actuators directly from the app. Read vehicle-specific signals: charge percentage, module temperatures, oil life and more beyond standard OBD2. ▸ ECU CODING AND HIDDEN FEATURES • CODING Read and back up ECU coding data, then switch hidden factory features on or off: mirror folding on lock, seatbelt chime, gauge sweep, headlight behavior. Expert Mode offers direct hex/byte access. • BRAND SUPPORT The most complete coding support is on BMW and MINI. Long coding and adaptation on VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat and Cupra; telecoding on Peugeot, Citroën, DS and Opel; module coding on Ford, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Jeep, Renault and Dacia; reading and analysis on Hyundai, Kia, Toyota and many more brands. Options vary by model. ▸ MORE • MOTORCYCLE AND TRUCK DIAGNOSIS K-line fault diagnosis and live data on motorcycles; active and historical faults plus live values over J1939 on trucks and buses. • REMOTE SUPPORT Open a support session from within the app; our team inspects your vehicle live through your phone. • 32 LANGUAGES Interface, fault code descriptions and coding labels in 32 languages. • COMPATIBILITY All OBD2-compliant vehicles (gasoline 2001+, diesel 2004+); quality ELM327 Bluetooth and Wi-Fi adapters. ▪ Coding and service resets write data to control modules. CarCoding backs up your data first — keep the ignition on and stay connected during the process. OBD2 scanner, car diagnostic tool and coding tool in one app. Download CarCoding.

Check-engine light on and a code such as P0420 from a workshop or a friend's reader? Type it in: Motorvet shows its standard title, its meaning in plain words and its system. Many common codes are explained; manufacturer-specific codes are marked as such, their meaning is not guessed. Free, no adapter needed. What else works without an adapter? The maintenance log: add your car by hand and note oil changes, brakes, tyres, inspections and more, with date, mileage and a note. Reminders by date or mileage, whichever comes first, can notify you on the day; for a mileage, Motorvet estimates the day from your entries. And the Buyer's Checklist for a used car: 34 points from paint to papers and the test drive, each OK, Note or Issue, with a note or photo, shared as a free PDF summary. What does the scanner read? With a Bluetooth LE OBD2 adapter in the OBD port, a Quick Scan reads trouble codes (stored, pending, permanent), the check-engine light, emissions readiness, freeze frame and the VIN when the car reports them, plus live values. Each scan ends with one of four summaries, based only on what the OBD port reports at that moment; every flagged item says why. Reading and explaining trouble codes is free. Does it help when I buy a used car? Walk around the car with the Buyer's Checklist. Then, with an adapter and the seller's permission, run the Used Car Check: enter the dashboard mileage and see what deserves a closer look, such as a recent reset of the diagnostic memory. Signals, never proof. The review on screen is free; the PDF report, with your checklist in it, needs Pro or a one-time Used Car Report. What does it not do? Standard engine and emissions data only: no ABS, airbag or transmission details, no coding, no service resets. Clearing codes, the only write function, needs your confirmation, the engine off and the car standing still, and is never offered in a Used Car Check. Do not use the app while driving. What do I need for a scan? A Bluetooth LE OBD2 adapter (ELM327/STN-compatible), sold separately; connect it in the app, not in iOS Settings. Adapters with Classic Bluetooth (paired with PIN 1234), Wi-Fi and USB adapters are not supported. A car with OBD-II/EOBD: in the EU generally petrol cars from about 2001 and diesels from about 2004, in the US from 1996. Some cars report fewer values, electric cars little or none; US cars that use only SAE J1979-2 are not supported yet. Compatible adapters: https://motorvet.taleppo.com/adapters What stays on my iPhone? Everything about your car: VIN, codes, scans, the maintenance log, checklists, photos and notes. No account, no advertising. Usage statistics are off unless you switch them on in Settings > Privacy. What is free, and what is Pro? Free: the code lookup, the maintenance log, the Buyer's Checklist, Quick Scan with code explanations, readiness, freeze frame, Simple live data, one vehicle, the Used Car Check on screen and clearing codes. Pro (subscription, 1 month or 12 months): unlimited vehicles, full history with comparisons, trends, advanced live data and unlimited PDF reports, including Used Car Reports. The Used Car Report (one-time purchase) unlocks the PDF of one Used Car Check on this iPhone; it is not restored on another iPhone or after reinstalling. Export the PDF to keep it.
