Q. Forscan Error "this adapter is not recommended for this car"
A. Forscan are planning to add some features in the future which are not compatible with ELM327 cables. This does not mean your adapter is faulty or not currently compatible with your car.
It means that due to poor quality Chinese Elm327 Forscan no longer recommends you use any Elm327 devices.
Our devices are of the highest quality and all previous features of Forscan will still work with our devices. Our modified ELM327 is still the best affordable solution for the home mechanic.
