Wow this is a awesome info. I have requested for more details from Bosch. btw where is the USB/connector port in Scorpio new model. I could not find it near fuse box.
All car now have this port. It will not be there in pre 1997 cars.
Current version is OBDII. You will get a OBDII dongle/wire which then connects to your laptop or mobile phone to give you all the car stats from the car's computer.
There are some cool tools (scangaugeII etc.) that can give more details.. real time fuel consumption, engine rpm etc etc.
