Where to buy OBDlink MX BT in EU

[PitrsRS]

Hello

Is there anybody who knows where to buy OBDlink MX BT for a normal price? I've looked on Amazon, eBay etc but they have ridiculous high price. Over 160€. In US same thing costs 95$...

Thanks for any advice

Higher priced than in the US, but reasonable: http://www.wgsoft.de/en/shop/obd-2-comp ... uheit.html

They offer the MX too, but at least LapTimer doesn't support any of the MX's additional protocol features.

Than for info. And simply what's the main difference between LX and MX?
Actually I have classic ELM327 and I want something much faster and reliable...

[Harry]

LX and MX are the same speed. Please check the OBD Benchmarks FAQ for more information. The MX supports some special Ford and GM protocols: SW-CAN for GM und MS-CAN for Ford vehicles. These seem to be extensions to CAN.

Thanks Harry. So that means XGPS160 remains

So, Obdlink LX BT and XGPS160 are finally at home. Friend of mine brought it to me from USA (totally different prices) ... Prices in EU are ridiculous...

I tied Obdlink for a short time this evening, but i see only 2hz refresh rate. It's that normal? With XGPS160 I see 10Hz

[Harry]

OBD speed depends a lot on the car's bus protocol. Pre CAN busses will not deliver more than 2 or 3 Hz, which means 10 to 15 PIDs per second. For CAN you should see anything in the range from 8 to 20 Hz.

I tried it today in my company car : Toyota Yaris MY 2015. I think speed of OBD depends on car itself and load of engine. On idle i have around 1-4Hz when I rised engine load, speed increases to 6-8Hz

BTW I Don't have any excluded PIDs yet

[Harry]

In the beginning the rate shown is lower because some special PIDs are pulled in addition. The rate should not depend on the engine's load.
