Got the VCM OTR installed today and after a bit of driving the engine light came on. I want an OBD II dongle just to clear the error (I know it will keep coming up) but I'm not going to get a tune until I get the full exhaust put on, so I need something which will do the job until then.

I was looking at this item
Ebay: Auto Car V1.5 ELM327 OBD2 ODBII Bluetooth CAN BUS Scanner Tool TORQUE ANDROID


Also I noticed that since the engine had the OTR fitted when deaccelerating the engine will flare as it changes down gears by about 300 rpm. That is driving at 1200rpm, gear change down will jump to 1500rpm then rev down. Is this normal or a separate issue?

It's an auto gear box.

I have that exact same dongle and it also comes with a cracked version of Torque as well. I ended up getting the Dashcommand app for $10 as its better. As for clearing codes I cant say as i havent had to so far but for the small investment it was well worth it for the novelty alone.

There is you need the wifi one, the one linked above has a wifi version, that's the one you need.

Also the CD that comes with it has a few cracked versions of various software but be aware mine was riddled with virus and malware

I use the wifi OBD Elm with dash command and it works great a little bit of mucking around to get working
