Durametric

Pretty sure some of you have used this.?
Works great for reading and resetting codes, and turning off your "Service Reminder"
But, that's about it.

Is there anything out there to allow you to CHANGE the settings on your car (besides the few that can be done through the PCM).

Or
can this ONLY be done by the PWIS system at local dealer.?

It can't be used to turn on or off options or settings.

It does have a data logger, which is fairly useful in tuning. Info like IAT can be logged an plotted.

Yea, that's what we have used it for.

Just wish someone somewhere made a unit that allows "CHANGES" to some of the minor options.
