I haven't seen it mentioned but as an FYI, Windows 10 has made a change to the way it assigns comm ports for Bluetooth which does not play fair with devices like the OBDlink MX. Microsoft is aware of the issue and a fix is targeted for an October release. For those that data log and have yet to upgrade to Win 10, I would hold off for now.

I continue to wait till a "stabilized" version of Windows 10 is available, glad you guys are enjoying the firefight at the frontlines ;)

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Update: MS put out the update and I confirmed that it's working (at least for me). I can now connect to my BT OBDLink MX and connect via Forescan or other program.
