OBD2 Compatibility Guide for NZ Vehicles

Choosing the right scan tool can be confusing, especially with so many makes, models, and varying years of compliance. To make it easier, we've created this quick-reference guide to help you understand which tools will work with your car. We've grouped each manufacturer by the year OBD2 support typically begins, and provided direct links to the appropriate tool categories.


How to Use This Guide

  • OBD2: This means your vehicle is likely compatible with any tool in our OBD2 Engine Code Readers category. These tools are ideal for reading and clearing engine fault codes and viewing live data.

  • All Systems: These links take you to our Manufacturer-Specific and All-Systems Tools – perfect if you want to scan more than just the engine (e.g. ABS, Airbags, Transmission, Body modules, etc.). Many of these tools also support pre-OBD2 vehicles.
