I never cease to admire the utilities that people find to this board. I sincerely encouraged to find links for you every day like this that I present below.
I have been surprised this morning when I saw as buying an adapter for less than $25, you can diagnose your vehicle and receive information directly in your Raspi.
[ODB](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-board_diagnostics) is a communication standard for reading data from your vehicle if it is relatively new.

I hope someone is encouraged to try.
