Default OBD-II WiFi adapters and ipad or mobile device

Has anyone had any experience with using say an iPad to monitor their XK ?

Is an XKR 2005 compatible with OBD-II WiFi adapters ?

I was just looking at this and wouldn't mind trying to do it and have the ipad in the car .

It should work fine, but you will be limited to engine & transmission codes and data, as with most generic OBD-II Scanners. There will also not be support for anything that is not sensed in the vehicle, such as oil pressure (there is just a low pressure switch). Some systems allow adding aftermarket sensors however.

Default Parameters and codes from the XKR

Thanks, I'm just trying to find out now what parameters are measured and if the codes are standard so I can find a wifi / Bluetooth OBD adaptor that will work well.

Anyone have any info on this or has actually done it I would really appreciate it.
