HI everyone, I am on a nice quiet Island in the Philippinesw and have finally gotten my hands on a Gen 3 Jimny.. JB43V engine. There are alot of fake/immitation parts in this part of the world.. I am a capable mechanic but just need a good/reliable/accurate ELM 327 or OBD2 unit that is compatible with this model.. can you suggest something.. I can purchase from anywhere no worries..

HELP...

Welcome to the forum. For general information I just use a cheap obd2 tool from draper, cost about 25 pounds and works well enough. For more advanced information like abs I borrow an snap-on reader from a friend as it would be like 600 pounds or more to buy.

Mine is evidently the previous model as I have had it a while but this is the new version.
