Re-posted as I posted in the wrong section.
Okay, I got my OBD 11 a couple of days ago and finally got up the nerve to use it. I knew I would have problems setting it up, connecting and understanding how to use it. And, I was right. What comes easy to many of you, was a pain in the poop for me. I was also afraid I would mess up OBD 2 with the press of one wrong button, but thank God that did not happen.
The only changes I made was to shut off seat belt alarm and to add "acceleration measurements". Thank you to those that posted those instructions. My OBD 11 performed a little different than some others reported. I did not have to open my hood, oil level was not displayed, and it showed up immediately after uploading.
Okay, now for the numbers. I ran three (3) consecutive 0-100 km/h of 3.4 seconds.. Acceleration measurements only shows tenths, so 3.4 could be 3.4 or 3.49. I thought it fair it use 3.45 when converting it to 0-60 times. Which gives me a 0-60 time of 3.33. Needless to say I am very surprised and absolutely delighted!!
I am expecting to hear how inaccurate these onboard time keepers are, and that if you want a real number you, have to have a "draggy". Well, I do not have a draggy, nor am I buying one. And, others will point out that some youtube videos showed the acceleration measurements to be within 1/10th of the draggy. Whatever..... these are my numbers and if correct, it would result in a 1/4 mile time of approx. 11.5's. BTW my car is 100% stock.
