Been using this to monitor things for a while, wondering how accurate it is?

Highest boost pressure I've seen is 13.4 psi, once. Usually no more than 12.9, sure it should record 14 psi.

Coolant temp seems to be between 75 and 77C unless idling for a prolonged period then it will reach about 89c and fan kicks in. Mid 70's seems kind of low too.

Battery voltage is generally 14.0 v, also seems a little low.

Does the app generally read a little low or are the values normal or should I investigate these readings further?

Cheers

Boost pressure, can't help you there i'm afraid, nothing in eLearn to state what it should be either.

Coolant temp should be stable in the mid 80's during idle (obviously once warmed up), so if it's hanging around the 70's even when light driving, you may need to replace your thermostat. Those figures to me would say the thermostat is stuck open.

Voltage looks ok, I'd start to worry if it was less than 13.5 for prolonged periods which would point to a faulty alternator.
 
Coolant temperature still looking a little low, 21 mile drive home up dual carriageway tonight. Thermostat doesn't appear to be stuck open as top hose stays cool as other lower hose heats up.

Cooling fan only operates after a long period of idling after a run. Will hook it up to MES tomorrow and see if it reads the same as Torque.

Cheers
