Question for anyone else who uses the Torque app... What ELM327 adapters are y'all using?
I've tried a couple different ones in my 2005 Envoy XL, they all pair to my phone just fine. They all are recognized and pair in the app. But they all simply just refuse to communicate with my ECU.

One of my friends has a Tahoe which was having the same symptoms and he told me it turned out to be a dying upstream O2 sensor.
I do have a shop vac so I'll give that a try after work and report back with my findings.

I usually keep my tires between 35-40 PSI but at least once a week recently, they all get down to 20-25psi or so and all at roughly the...

With my last OCI I finished up my old stock Quaker State API SJ 10W30 I had on hand.
I had about 4500 miles this time, which included a decent amount of towing plus "spirited" driving.
The results this time seem concerning so I'm interested in what you guys think.
