I sent a text to my buddy who owns a shop and I'm waiting on a reply to see if he has any recommendations.

Can an obd2 reader and the torque app do this?

This is what i bought. With torque it has alot of reporting. It does the fuel banks and throttle position.

Anyone know of a tool (Besides a tuner) that can read how your engine is running? Something that displays knock timing retard and such. I need to show how my engine runs or at least say how I know it pulls timing and runs rough. Thanks in advance.

This is how many engine sounds sometimes Sounds horrible - YouTube
After fighting with the dealership and them telling me it is normal I have logged my truck using DS many times. In all logs I have major ST & LT knock. I want to be able to tell them this and prove it isnt running properly.

Yup. And thats what I can see with free version. Truck does nit read fuel pressure but does show fuel trims too. You can open the aapp and see what all it does before u get the obd adapter.

That sounds awful. I thought I was gonna hear the usual Hemi tick but this is way beyond anything I have heard. Does it do it on a stock tune? I get no LT and only like 3 ST for a couple tenths of a second and thats when Im really beatin on it with WOT runs back to back. I would put it back to stock and take it to another dealer.

Razzaa,

So, I found the Knock sensor reporting. it is an Add on to the Torque pro. It basically loggs the Knock when the engine is revved I think. As of today, on my tablet I have it all setup to report
Tach
Speed
Engine temp
trans temp
Voltages
Timing advance (see mine most ly in the 17° range)
Vacuum/Boost
Intake manifold pressure
Fuel Rate (g/hr or g/min)
Engine Load
C02 emissions (g/km)
Both Cat temperatures (1500°F on the interstate)
all of the O2 sensors voltages
Short and long term Fuel trims (whatever these mean)
Barometer (measured by ECM)
Throttle %

I have it setup on my Galaxy tab 10.1 and I can prop it up on the dash and have the dials layed out so it is pretty easy to read while moving. I should have just done a screen shot but I forget how to on my tablet. it is not as easy as my phone. I put the speed in a square like the vltage and replaced that gauge with the barometer. Accell gague was replaced with ST fuel trim.
