Hi Bajanmack,

Where are you located? I have not heard of a Liana here in the US.

Same thing as an Aerio. The CReader V should pull OBDII information for US-model vehicles, not sure if the protocols would be different in Barbados. Have you tried to run the update? Check your System Information--> Software Version and see if it's the latest (3.22). If you need to update, go to www.crecorder.com, click on Products, and use a computer with XP (these systems are easier). The updates are free for the life of the tool.

You may find the Creader is normally sold for the standard OBD/EOBD 2 and NOT normally sold for JOBD, Not saying it cannot do asian cars as here in the UK we still do many models, years and all different manufactures, here like most different countrys there is NO true manual on what the OBD readers will cover, well we dont have one here ?? there is only guides unless someone can correct me on that..

there are many websites and different companys that will offer a tested list for a guide like :-

http://www.myscantool.com/vehicles.html

Maybe this will help..

yes i have run the update for my tool and its 3.22.000 and still nothing works. is there any kind of adapter that built to convert the asian models into readable format because it seems like this tool only works for u.s based vehicles
