Carista OBD2

Will the dealer do these things for free for us?

 

Doubt they'll turn off the seat belt chime. Some owners have been able to get the dealer to turn off the fake v8 or make changes, free of charge. Some have offered to do it at a price and others had no clue what they were talking about. Talk to your dealer

 

My dealer said they can turn of the driver but not the passengers.

 

Are you guys also seeing these alerts? 16 Faults detected!

All i wanted to do and did was turn off the fake V8 sound and turn/blinker from 3 to 7.

 

I had 10 faults, the dealership can figure those out.

 

Yeah I’m in the Richardson area at the moment

 

I'm in Frisco.

 

The desire to $$ a crista for temp settings is beyond me. It’s around 103 here, before noon, my wife’s setting is 70 and mine is 68. Any lower and we would need sweatshirts. ;-)

 

Any chance you will be over by me so I can change my settings real quick lol?

 

I turned off the fake noise and then turned it back on. The V6 is strong but the sound is weak. I did keep the seatbelts killed.

 

Pming now

 

I have one if anyone wants to use it. 92887 area

 

Start your engine.

This surprises me.
The sensors go out to 1/100th of a pound and 2 of my tires are the exact same.

 

My guy, it’s on sale right now for $29.99! $8 shipping to WA.

 

Pages of stuff like oil temp and engine load. There a lot of stuff. I'll screenshot later. When I looked earlier after a 15 min drive engine oil temp was 95. It's 100+ in Houston today. Dash said 104. My guess if there's a sensor for it you can see it.

 

Nice.

User Mayan actually just stopped by and let me use his! Turns out my engine noise was already off lol. But I was able to turn off the stupid seat belt chime. Thanks again, Mayan!

 

My pleasure glad I was able to help and it’s always fun meeting forum members. Great recommendation on the bar btw! The bacon cheeseburger with onion rings oh lord I want another one lol

 

My dealer in Canada shut off the engine noise and dinged me $40. So I ordered a Carista .....and will offer it to any one around me just to stick it to the dealer. Right now I have 6 trucks lined up when it gets here

 

Just used this with an older Bluetooth obd2 scan tool I had and it worked. No more EES and now my dog can sit in the passenger seat without making the chime go off forever. The window feature is cool too, just wish I could make them roll up with the key.

 

The one Mayan has is the veepeak. I was curious if it worked with any obd2 Bluetooth device.

 

i think mine is a veepeak too

 

Exactly why we adjusted it, so when its set to 70, the temp is actually 70. Whereas you are having to put it at 68 to get 70. Not a big deal, but if I have it, I am changing the setting to what I want.
I wanted mine to mimic the old tundra, so set at 70 and fuggedaboutit. It matters when the outside temp is near the inside temp, if it's 69 outside I don't want the AC coming on because I have it set at 68.

I bought mine to get rid of the engine noise and seat belt dings. Trying taking a trip with two dogs that don't sit still. 10 hours with 5 of them with seat belt dings will drive a sane man mad. My 2016 only had front seat sensors and the dinger went off after 30 seconds. $40 bucks is a bargain for my sanity.

I am a seat belt wearer and the dash still blinks if I forget.

 

I'm in the 45601 zip and would be willing to help anyone out.

 

But when it's set on low it's not like it blows colder. And right now in Texas low is the only option

 

It’s been in the low to mid 100’s all week (108 yesterday), and our factory setting of 70 (wife) and 68 (me) has kept our interior more than cool enough for both of use. I suspect the idea of tinkering with your vehicles is the itch your scratching.

As stated before; your truck, your money. Kept having fun.

 

I'm aware lol. I'm in the Dallas area and I can't get my truck cold enough.

 

Just got the week trial (have a Veepeak adapter) and am in Utah if anyone wants access for in the next several days.

 

Has anyone used any of the other apps? There seems to be a lot and I wonder how they compare to carista.

 

One thing to consider. The Android app. will be easier to connect with other Bluetooth devices than Apple.
