killertomatoes Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Oh there are plenty of companies out there that offer this. You may be able to search and find a free shareware program for your laptop...but you need the OBD II interface. This is where the money comes in....you may be able to do the Ebay thing and find one cheap. Otherwise from what i have seen it will be anywhere from $75.00, to $350.00 for a complete kit.
