Thread: Which is the best scan tool for Infiniti G35?

I guess it depends on what you want to do if you just want the basic OBD II parameters than the OBDPro will do the job, plus now it offers free upgrades over the web via remote reflash.

If you want to read enhanced Nissan specific parameters yes something like AutoTap would be required

Thx for your reply Michbound!
I’ve been hearing about Auto-Tap; I just want to know, basically, the difference between the OBDpro and Auto Tap!

Can Auto Tap read more sensors? …..!!! Is it worth the extra cost?

By the way, I own a Mustang GT 1997, Acura RL 1999 and the G35 2003…strange combination, I know!!!!! All OBDII systems.

Hi Robert,

No the Autotap cannot read extra sensors for the Acura or the G35, for the Mustang they do have an add on software that will read certain additional parameters.

Also on a 97 GT not sure how many of the additional parameters would be support.

For the basic sensors

A/C System Refrigerant Monitoring Status
Auxiliary Input Status
Catalyst Monitoring Status
Comprehensive Component Monitoring Status
ECT
EGR System Monitoring Status
Engine Load
Engine Load
Engine Speed
EVAP Vent Solenoid Command
Evaporative System Monitoring Status
Fuel Pressure
Fuel System Monitoring Status
Fuel System Status Bank 1
Heated Catalyst Monitoring Status
IAT
Ignition Timing
LTFT B1
LTFT B2
MAF
MAP
Misfire Monitoring Status
O2 Sensor - B1S1
O2 Sensor - B1S1 (mV)
O2 Sensor - B1S2
O2 Sensor - B1S2 (mV)
O2 Sensor - B1S3
O2 Sensor - B1S4
O2 Sensor - B2S1
O2 Sensor - B2S2
O2 Sensor - B2S3
O2 Sensor - B2S4
OBD Requirements
Oxygen Sensor Heater Monitoring Status
Oxygen Sensor Monitoring Status
Secondary Air System Monitoring Status
STFT B1
STFT B2
Throttle Position
Vehicle Speed


The OBDPro will provide way better bang for the buck than the Autotap, but then if you need the additonal parameters for the Mustang and there is a long list here http://www.autotap.com/enhanced_parameters_ford.asp
Then you will need to get the autotap or purchase the add on module from PCMScan that will allow the OBDPro to read the additional Ford parameters.

One additional thing... with the OBDPro you can use software from a wide variety of developers such as the OBD2007, OBDDiag, PCMSCan, Dashcommand, Scanmaster etc whereas with the Autotap you are locked into their own version of the software this might be an additional factor in your evaluation
