I have received this kind of product :
Ebay
I tried it with carman but I have a connection error, seems that carman is not compatible with diablo.
I will give you my feedback when it works.

This is a product based on ELM327 and bluetooth so if it works for me, there's no reason why it should not work for you.

Carman is compatible with Diablo, infact I have the exact same model of scanner. It does have problems connecting some times but when it does, it works fine.

Thanks for the information.
I tried about 20 times but I still have the connection error.
Maybe my key has been broken during the delivery, I should try with a laptop.
Looking at carman's garage, it seems that another user is experiencing the same connection problem ( bug #2667 ).

There are definitely issues with establishing the connect but when it connects it works continuously after that (until you disconnect). I think the best bet is to hold off until the new version is available.

Can't wait for that new version.
Hope it will be out at the beginning of August.
August is such a long month...

Having looked at the "roadmap" from the carman webiste I would be very suprised to see a new release in August. The roadmap shows that 0.7 release should have been done in may, and 0.8 is "not started".

No idea how uptodate they are but it doesn't look good.

The announce has been made after may.
So I think the roadmap is just not up to date.

1996 Saturn
1998 Chevy Cavalier
2004 Honda Civic
2008 Honda Fit
and
when it comes in
2009 VW TDI Jetta Sportwagen
any suggestions welcome.

I think that what was expected for May was postponed to August. They achieve 90% on most of tasks.

so the folks that are having issues with carman on diablo, how did you get it to finally connect? I keep having a "connection error" messages as well. i deleted the profile from carman and re-created it, to no avail. i even deleted the elmscan 5 bluetooth profile and re-created it.

i can find no logs for carman, and would like to see more on that front in a future version. if i could do any troubleshooting, i might be able to figure out what is going wrong.
