Xiaotec 850 OBD2 app

Martin Cox · Aug 27th, 2020, 11:38

I've just learned of the Xiaotec 850 OBD2 app for Android.

Does anybody have any experience with it?

In particular, is it likely to do anything useful with my MSA15.7 1998 V70 Tdi Auto and what physical interface does it use?

Sorry to jump in to your thread but I'm having some issues getting my OBD2 reader to connect. I've got 2 - a Bluetooth one and a WiFi one, both have worked fine with various cars over the years but neither of them will work on this one (1999 V70). Is this car particularly fussy about the type of adapter used or could there be a fault with the plug in my car or something? I've tried both 850 OBD2 and InCarDoc (the free one) they both just go round and round in circles instead of connecting.

I believe you need an ELM327 bluetooth one.
