I have been looking around for some answers on here but didn't find any luck. Since i have few problems with my car, and sometimes codes come up. I decided to look in to ODB II scanner for my car, that I could scan it with my Droid phone though Bluetooth.

Any thoughts or suggestion of what to look for and which one to get.

I know eBay has them from 20 -150$
Amazon has on for 145$

I really don't know which one to go with.. any additional help is Thanked in Advance!

Search, there was a thread on it recently with answers, the 20$ dongles seem to work fine.

And you want the Torque app.

Android market, it doesn't work for iphone, unless there's some kind of jailbreak way.

I know there's a cable and app you can get but it runs 100+ bucks i hear.
