Anybody know some good freeware for our jeeps? I have a vagcom cable (for vw's and audis) but I guess it works as an interface for our jeeps. Mainly looking for something to figure out and possible erase p-codes but it'd be cool if there was something I could tweak the jeep a little. Thanks in advance.

I haven't heard of ANYTHING effective for OBDII jeeps. People even knock the chips you can buy for these things... Best is to do the bolt-on or internal stuff you are going to do, make sure you have the right # injectors, purge the ECU memory and let it adapt.
Somebody, correct me if I'm wrong...

This is just for monitoring gauges, but it is free and is really useful. I have another program I bought for my laptop that works great too, but both are just for measuring and not tweeking.

BTW I haven't gotten this to work with my cable but I haven't tried to figure it out yet.

Nah Im mainly looking to do diagnostic work for it. Tuning is for turbos not mostly stock jeeps. I love the work I can do with my 1.8t and i think that software that Mosephus linked looks pretty good. I'll let you guys know how it works out. Thanks again.
