Carista OBD2

The Carista App transforms your smartphone into a powerful DIY car mechanic tool, enabling you to diagnose fault codes, customize features, monitor live data, and perform essential car services right from your palm. By using Carista, you can save both time and money typically spent on workshop visits, making it an invaluable asset for car owners.

With Carista, you can customize your car's behavior to unlock hidden features, including those protected by SFD, and tailor your vehicle to your preferences. The app allows you to diagnose and reset dashboard warning lights, helping you identify and resolve issues before they turn into costly repairs. You can also monitor real-time parameters to stay informed about your car's health and performance, and perform simple DIY procedures to save on routine maintenance.

Carista supports a wide range of vehicles, including certain models from Audi, BMW, Infiniti, Lexus, Land Rover, Lincoln, MINI, Nissan, Scion, SEAT, Škoda, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Ford. To check if your car is supported, visit Carista's supported cars page.

The Carista App is user-friendly and simple to use; just plug in the scanner, turn on Bluetooth, press "Connect," and explore what your car can do. The app is backed by excellent customer service and frequent updates that introduce new features and support for additional car brands.

To fully leverage the Carista App, pair it with the Carista EVO Scanner. While the app is also compatible with other OBD2 adapters like OBDLink MX+, OBDLink CX, OBDLink MX Bluetooth or LX adapters, Kiwi3 adapter, or a genuine Bluetooth ELM327 v1.4, the Carista EVO Scanner offers the best experience. For more information on compatible hardware, visit Carista's adapters page.

If you opt for the official Carista EVO Scanner with a yearly subscription, you'll receive a free one-month trial of all paid features. Pricing may vary based on currency and region.
