Hi I live in Sydney Australia and drive a 1996 850R.
Does anyone know if there are any OBDII tools that work on the Australian 850's.
I want to read & clear fault codes, service light & fault light.
I have tried the Auterra Dyno-Scan for palm, but it didnt work at all.

Also there is a kind of humming from the engine bay when I drive the car from cold for a short time, about 2-3 minutes. Once warm there is no humming.
Does anyone know what this humming is.

Please Help Rob.

Does your car have an airpump ? It runs on cold start-up for a couple of minutes. If so sounds like it has water in side the pump which unless drained will cost big $s Some have sugested drilling a 1/8" hole in the bottom as a drain.
