Hi all, I found a guide using aluminium foil for the civic (on this forum)... is it possible to do the same on the CR-V? anyone tried it?? It's a sunday and would like to sort out my problem with my CR-V as the MIL is on... and it's in limp mode...

This is not a solution "without tools" but you can find cheap ODBII bluetooth dongles on e-bay.

I bought the ELM327 one.

Thanks AoS... I also opted to buy one off eBay, but I prefer the wired version!

I bought the bluetooth version to use it with my mobile phone (Torque application on Android)
