Can you tell me if it does water temp instead of oil temp.And do you have a model for bmw x5m f85 2017

[@P3Gauges]

Yes it does, currently the only gauge we have for that is our DIY gauge - www.p3cars.com/diy/p3-v3-obd2-diy-gauge-2008/

If we go with the obd2 splitter are there any concerns with changing tunes or data logging. Will be using the MHD adapter.

[@P3Gauges]

You most likely won't be able to data log and run the gauge in OBD2 mode at the same time due to network traffic issues. However, you can put the gauge into "Analog mode" with just a few button presses and then the gauge will be able to read boost, battery voltage, and analog inputs will still be able to be read without being on the network. You can also disconnect and reconnect the gauge from the OBD2 port at any time and it will pick up right where you left off.

Thinking about this gauge for my 340i. Can you leave it plugged in even when parked and the car is off? Does it drain battery from being left plugged into the OBD2 port ?

[@P3Gauges]

The gauge uses logic to turn on and off with the engine so it won’t drain your battery you don’t have to unplug it. We also give the option for it to be connected to a switched power source if you prefer.

[@BEAR_S55]

Do you guys have a video showing how to hardwire it in?

[@P3Gauges]

We do not have a video but you can see diagrams on our hardwire product page - www.p3cars.com/accessories/v3-hardwire-harness/ You can either use wire splices or cut and solder or whatever is your preference.
