Any time buddy. I know how frustrated I was when I couldn't pull codes using the diagnostic connector under the hood. Also several of the OBD-II code readers that I tried would not read the codes. So I wasn't sure if my car actually was OBD-II or not. I thought maybe I got left in some grey area, where there was no diagnostic method. It wasn't until I got that one from Scantool.net (that I posted the link to) that I could finally pull codes.

Just FYI, if you're interested, that scantool.net reader is really cool. You hook it up through your laptop, and it gives you all kinds of reat-time data. One of the best investments I've made for my car.

By the way, I was checking out your ride on cardomain.com... Really nice ride man, very clean, very pimp. Love it!
