How to Sportify Your Peugeot with a Smartphone App

Model: Peugeot Peugeot Various
Part: Instrument cluster

Learn how to sportify your car with a downloadable app from your smartphone that connects to the OBD II. Depending on the vehicle, the app will communicate directly with the ECU, or you may need to connect a cable to the port; this depends on the vehicle and the year of manufacture. On Android Auto, the ECU communicates information that the user would normally not be aware of, but you can access it through an APK called AAAD; once opened, you can download a free application each month. This is called "performance monitor", which can be customised in a thousand different ways. If your car does not automatically read the data, you can try this iLC OBDII wireless adapter for £19.49 on Amazon, while to download the APK, you need to search for shmykelsa/AAAD development.
