Can anyone recommend a cheap known working bluetooth adaptor for Torque Pro from say Amazon or eBay?
Ideally one that you've used with a Mk4 Mondeo.
Thanks

The Elm 327. No experience with the Mondeo.

I use Forscan Software (Windows Free, Android Cheap) with my 2008 Mazda.
It is specifically for Fords and Mazdas.
Much more detailed than Torque Pro and can be used to switch options on/off, program Injectors, etc

You need a Modified Elm 327 for Forscan (has a Toggle Switch). Available on Ebay/Amazon.

It will work with other Cars and Software.

If this is for an iPhone you need a WIFI elm 327 rather than Bluetooth as those will only work with android handsets wink

All Android here.
Went with a switchable modified one. Should be here tomorrow.
Thank for the info, had no idea about the modified aspect.
Will Torque work with the modified as well? I assume thats what the switch is for.
I bought Forscan Lite as well anyway.

Yes will work with Torque. You just don't use the Switch for non Forscan Software.
The Switch in MS (Medium Speed Can Bus I think?) gets you Power Steering, Climate, TPMS Systems and more with Forscan.

I use a Windows Laptop with a Modified USB Elm.
No Torque for Windows but I use the Elm with ScanMaster on Mrs Toyota and Neighbours Hyundai.

All worked fine, got the MOT.
When I took it for the retest he even let me clear the light as it came back on when he fired the car up.

This is the one if anyone is interested. Connected first time, no probs.
