They make bluetooth monitors you can get through your phone now that are cheaper than the Scanguage.

X2. You can order a ScangaugeII online from Advance Auto using promo code TRT30. It will give you 30%off.
OR
If you get a Bluetooth OBDII adapter and download app Torque Pro or FORSCAN you monitor practically everything and check for pending codes that don't set off the check engine light.
They are both simple to hook up and can be used in other vehicles.
