oil temp/pressure gauge via OBDII/ScanGaugeII X-Gauge?
ScanGauge now has the ability to render mfr-specific data for which the user supplies the protocol (data format). The relevant portion of p.25 of the manual for the new (X-Gauge) version reads:

Quote:
The ScanGaugeII is intended to be used in all OBDII compatible vehicles. You don't have to buy a different type of ScanGaugeII for each type of vehicle.

One limitation of this has been that vehicles supply more than the "standard" information but the ScanGaugeII could not utilize them. The XGAUGE feature overcomes this limitation.

In order to read the data from the vehicle, you need to have the following information:

* Command to send
* How to identify a response to the command
* Where to find the data in the response
* How to scale, offset and display the data.

[...]
(grab the whole manual here.)

Are oil temp/press. accessible via OBD2? I understand that they are on the CANbus, and that the oil gauges in a 997 dashboard, transplanted into a 987, will in fact work right.
