Access to real-time engine data is crucial if you want the best performance from your 4X4. Installing a ScanGauge 3 is one of the easiest and most efficient ways to do this. Watch as Trav shows you how…
PDP Kits Come with Everything You Need
PDP performance kits and parts come complete with everything you need to install. In terms of the ScanGauge 3, this consists of:
· The ScanGauge 3 unit.
· An OBD plug
· All necessary mounting hardware.
· Detailed instructions.
The great thing about installing this incredible data device is that it really is a plug-n-play. In the 300 Series, the OBD port is on the driver’s side. Plug her in, turn the ignition and you’re good to go.
The monitor is highly intuitive. It guides you through the initial setup, which includes the tank size, engine size, unit preferences etc. You also get loads of customisation options, including screen layout and what parameters you want to display. This clever little beaut scans the vehicle, automatically tuning into all available sensors and giving you the ability to monitor everything, including:
· Oil pressure.
· Coolant temperature.
· Exhaust gas temperature.
· Intercooler temperature.
And loads more…
There are three really crucial areas that provide you with incredible vehicle performance info.
1. Fuel monitoring and accuracy: This is a game changer, allowing you to calibrate the tank size via the ‘fill up’ or partial fill up’ function of the ScanGauge 3 – and often more accurately than the 300’s built-in system.
2. Proactive alerts: You can set alarms for critical anomalies, such as battery voltage or coolant temperature. Being aware of a vital parameter breach before anything goes completely pear-shaped gives you the chance to address it before things get worse (and inevitably end up costing more money to fix).
3. Real-time performance insights: Whether you’re towing, off-roading or simply heading to work, having access to pivotal data is crucial for keeping your vehicle in optimal condition.
All the above brings real peace of mind – and the ability to maximise performance and vehicle longevity. As with all of our performance parts for the 300 Series, we sell kit that not only does what it promises, but that truly upscales your use of the vehicle. From performance brackets to electrical, and everything in-between, products only make it into our stock list if they truly improve the off-roading experience.
