Description of Garmin Mechanic™

Find out what’s really going on under your hood with Garmin Mechanic.
Get insight into how your car is performing with the free Garmin Mechanic™ app. Use the Skidpad to measure lateral acceleration, and track your speed and distance using GPS.
Taking a trip? Garmin Mechanic tracks your trips and calculates total distance, average speed, and estimated mileage to help increase fuel savings. Got more than one vehicle? You can track and collect data on multiple vehicles.
At the pump, enter your fill-up data and track average mileage, total fuel used, fuel cost, cost per mile and more. Set up service schedules for maintenance on all your vehicles, and get notifications when service is due.
Expand your toolbox by pairing the Garmin Mechanic app with our ecoRoute™ HD module (sold separately) and gain access to real-time performance data, including live gauges showing RPM, throttle position, intake pressure, manifold vacuum, boost, instant economy, battery voltage, real-time estimated power and torque, and more. Evaluate your driving style with the Eco Score gauge.
Create gauge sets and save them as Dashboards, and instantly recall them for different driving modes (e.g. towing, economy, racing).
Measure your vehicle's performance with the Acceleration/Dyno feature. Measure 0-30, 0-60 and 1/4-mile times, torque and horsepower.
With the ecoRoute HD module, Garmin Mechanic also calculates your instant and average fuel economy, and checks your vehicle’s self-test status for emissions certification. The vehicle diagnostics feature reads and provides descriptions for over 6500 error codes and resets your vehicle’s Check Engine light.
Export all your vehicle information (including fill-ups, service schedule, service history, sensor data, diagnostic data, acceleration runs and more) to view on your computer.

    Excellent App. It worked well until Android evolved and the App lost connectivity with the Garmin Echo HD (the Bluetooth does not find the device anymore) I don't understand why Garmin keeps doing this with their products: they abandon the projects and leave customers with a 100us$ hardware good for nothing 😡 How hard would be to just follow up the Android evolution and update the App?

    Without the now dead hardware unit this needs more thought. Having to be either metric or imperial is stupid in the uk. Most vehicled have miles not kms, but fuel is bought in litres. A simple option to use miles or km would help. Crossing currency areas is not catered for. Worst entered garages for fuel are not saved. Overall a poor app not tested in the real world. Terrible development .

    Could not get this app to connect to an older model ( v1.0) ecoRoute module. Tried the latest version of the app and still no luck getting it to work.
