The BlueDriver Bluetooth OBDII Scan Tool is a premium diagnostic tool used by mechanics, car enthusiasts, and everyday drivers. It provides detailed vehicle information and troubleshooting capabilities, especially helpful when the check engine light comes on. This scan tool allows users to understand their car’s performance and potential issues by connecting wirelessly via Bluetooth to the vehicle’s OBDII port.
Understanding Your Car with BlueDriver
The BlueDriver OBDII scan tool offers a range of features designed to provide in-depth vehicle diagnostics. It can scan for and clear trouble codes, offering insights into the underlying issues triggering your check engine light. Beyond basic code reading, BlueDriver provides Enhanced Diagnostics for specific car makes and models, including ABS, Airbag, and Transmission systems.

BlueDriver Repair Reports: In-Depth Diagnostic Solutions
A key feature of BlueDriver is its comprehensive Repair Report database. Containing over 30 million experienced-based Reported Fixes for Trouble Codes (DTCs), this database provides solutions ranked by frequency and relevance to your specific vehicle’s year, make, and model. These reports go beyond simple code definitions, offering validated fixes to help you prioritize repairs and save valuable time. Sample Repair Reports are available for preview within the BlueDriver app.
Getting Started with BlueDriver
The BlueDriver app is free to install on your smartphone or tablet. However, it requires the BlueDriver Bluetooth OBDII Sensor to connect to your vehicle. This sensor is sold separately through the app or the BlueDriver website. You can generate Repair Reports without the sensor by entering the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and Trouble Code directly into the app. The BlueDriver Sensor easily connects to your car’s OBDII data port, typically located near the steering wheel. All cars manufactured since 1996 are equipped with this standardized port, ensuring global compatibility.
