DST Engine Support

[RobyPal83]

Hi for all,

I've Skoda Octavia 4 (last model) with 2.0 tdi 150cv engine (DST), is supported by app?

Thanks.

I don't have experience with that engine, neither feedback from users.
Very recent engine introduced a new canbus initializazion method that the app currently doesn't support, but there isn't an easy way to understand if an engine uses this new method or not.
The only way is to try using the free app.

Thanks for replay.

I'm try with carista OBD and engine is not supported.
App Display the message (I'm use google translate, because I'm Italian):

Communication errors.
The ECU responds to OBD2 requests but not to CAN ISO-15765 requests.
Possible causes:
- Engine not supported
- ELM327 defective or of poor quality (I don't think because you recommended it).



Thanks,

Roberto

You need to find your engine code and then check if it's supported in the engine list in the play store page.
The engine code can be found in the service booklet or in the vehicle registration document.

If you can't find it, post your engine and car details.

Is not listed in supported engine.

Your engine probably uses the last modified diagnostic protocol with 29bit initialization instead of the previous 11bit.
It ins't a big change, but it requires many days of test and debug in which I need to have a car available full time that I don't have.
But I keep serching for it, I also asked to rental companies, but at least in my area there aren't so new VAG cars at the moment.
