How To Use
Is there an App included with the item?
Currently no. You have to get a compatible third-party App from the App Store or Google Play Store (some may NOT be free). Also what features you can get mainly depends on your chosen App. Please refer to the user instructions.
What vehicles are supported when using it with BimmerCode or BimmerLink App?
Currently only 2008+ models are supported for the two apps. Additionally, G series is not fully supported in BimmerCode. Please refer to the app official page for detailed compatibility.
Does it work on electric vehicles?
It can work on most EVs, but it requires a proper App, for example Car Scanner ELM OBD2 (with the appropriate EV connection profiles), Dr Prius, ABRP (iOS version), EVNotify, LeafSpy, MyGreenVolt, EV Watchdog, etc.
Does it read transmission temperature or other manufacturer-specific PIDs?
The transmission (fluid) temperature is a manufacturer specific PID so it’s not read by most generic OBD2 Apps. Please refer to user instructions or contact support for help.
Where can I find user instructions or how to use video?
You can find the latest user instructions from Amazon product page "Product guides & documents", which includes detailed vehicle compatibility, App recommendations and troubleshooting. Videos can be found from the product image library.
Common Troubleshooting
1. Device does not power up (no blue light).
First check if the cigar fuse of your vehicle is in good condition. You can also try with another vehicle to verify.
2. When I try to connect “VEEPEAK” with my iPhone or iPad, it tells me it is not supported.
This device uses Bluetooth LE for iOS devices. You will see this error when trying to pair with it from the iOS Bluetooth Settings. You do not need to connect with VEEPEAK here. Please restart your iOS device so “VEEPEAK” shows up again, then start the OBD App to connect (refer to App connection tips in user instructions).
3. Could not pair my Android device with “VEEPEAK”.
Disconnect other Bluetooth devices; Turn off Bluetooth and turn it back on. Try pairing a few more times; Restart your Android device; Clear Bluetooth data cache to completely reset Bluetooth (Settings > Apps > More options > Show system apps > Bluetooth > Storage> Clear data); For Car Scanner ELM OBD2 or Infocar App, you can initiate the Bluetooth pairing in App settings; For Android head units, check the Bluetooth settings and see if PIN is enabled or the default pairing PIN is correct (should be 1234).
4. App not connecting to Veepeak device.
Make sure the App is compatible, and you have made the correct App connection settings and granted the App permissions; Remove and re-install the app (especially when you have an OS update); Try with a different App.
5. Cannot connect to vehicle/ECU.
Make sure your vehicle is OBD II compliant, ignition is ON and the OBD2 connector is in good condition; Make sure it fits well in the OBD2 port. Try to push it a little harder into the OBD2 port if the contact is loose; Check if your vehicle is supported by the App; Try it on another vehicle.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Once I connected it to my phone, the app that I was going to use with it quickly found the device and displayed the car's information.
There are many apps that this will work with that display different information. Good to have this for more than just checking Check Engine lights!
First off, let's talk setup. While it's not exactly brain surgery, getting this bad boy up and running might require a bit more patience than teaching your grandma how to use Snapchat. The instructions are about as straightforward as a Rubik's Cube, and I found myself wishing for a magic wand to speed up the process.
Once you've conquered the setup mountain, you're greeted with a user interface that's... well, let's just say it's not winning any beauty contests. It's functional, sure, but about as charming as a rusty old bumper. Navigating through the menus feels like trying to find a needle in a haystack, especially if you're used to slicker interfaces.
But fear not, intrepid driver! Once you've wrangled the beast into submission, the Veepeak OBDCheck does deliver on its promise. Need to diagnose engine issues? It's got your back. Want to monitor your car's vitals in real-time? Consider it done, albeit with a few more button presses than you'd like.
Now, onto compatibility. While the Veepeak OBDCheck claims to work with a wide range of vehicles, I found that it can be a bit finicky with older models. It's like trying to teach your grandpa how to use TikTok - there's a learning curve, and sometimes it just refuses to cooperate.
But hey, it's not all doom and gloom! Once you've tamed the technology beast, the Veepeak OBDCheck is actually a pretty handy tool to have in your arsenal. It might not be the prettiest or the easiest to use, but it gets the job done - like a reliable old pickup truck that's seen better days but still chugs along like a champ.
So, in conclusion, if you're willing to overlook a few quirks and quirks, the Veepeak OBDCheck is a solid investment for anyone who's tired of playing guessing games with their car. Just be prepared to roll up your sleeves and dive into the nitty-gritty. After all, nothing worth having comes easy, right?
Once all the APP settings were correct I ran a test. Found out what passed and failed and how I need to proceed.
Due to seeing reviews where it stated only worked once, I cleared the codes, unplugged the unit and rescanned next day. Worked perfectly! I started with a cold crank and monitored to operating temp.
I DO recommend this product and note the company as trust worthy and reliable!
