This is the Delta gauge pid info. This gauge tells you the difference between oil temp and coolant temp. You have to create this gauge, as it is not a standard gauge in TP at this time.
On main Torque Pro page, click on your Android menu button (on "most" android devices, it is the button left of your home button)
Click settings
Click "manage extra pids / sensors"
Click your Android menu button again
Click "add custom pid"
A caution message "may" come up..if it does, click OK
The OBD2 PID editor will be shown, fill in each item as shown in picture below
When done, there should be a save/OK or similar button at bottom....click it to save the delta gauge.

Anyone here know if Torque Pro will read ABS code? I have a vehicle that ABS kept coming on along with service light then goes off.
I know it one of the ABS sensor wiring getting ready to break off because it common defect on this vehicle and need to get a reading to determine which wheel is it this time.

I'm like you kinda. I have the torque pro on my tablet and phone but not using them yet--waiting to get the adapter. Using the scan gauge now. One thing like on the torque is on my tablet (7") I have 6 gauges up at once versus 4 and with just a swipe have another 6 and another and another--6 screens worth

The Torque APP pro does a better job scanning for codes. If you have a code, your phone can then do a search for what the code means.
SGII suffers scanning for codes, but, it is faster on the initial link up. That is how I found my weakening FICM. My FICM would start at 35 then go to 48 in ten seconds or so. The Torque APP and other bluetooth devices take some time to link up and thus miss that kind of issue.
The Torque APP can have more gauges running on the screen than the SGII. And with the flick of a finger, move to yet another screen with more gauges.
Funny thing though. My SGII I use daily. It stays set up in the truck. I don't have to set it up every time I start up. Like I do with the Torque APP.
Over all? The Torque APP gives you more.
And, you can't piggy back these things. They conflict with each other.

Ok, and this is a great write-up Money-Pit! It would be nice to be able to look at 6 gauges vs. 4 at one time. I am certainly going to look into this. On the piggy backing, I saw that money-pit had both of them listed in his sig. and I wasn't sure if there was an adapter that you could get both of them going at once, but it makes sense that they would conflict with each other, especially if for some weird reason you were trying to monitor the same thing on both the scangauge and torque pro. Thanks for straightening me out on that.

Can't piggy back since both use the obdii port.
