Depending on your car’s make and model (2008 and newer vehicles are compatible), you can access critical information such as:
- Intake Air Temperature (IAT)
- Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT)
- Engine RPM
- Ethanol Content (%)
- Mass Air Flow (MAF)
- Fuel Pressure
- Manifold Pressure
- Boost Pressure
- Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)
- Vehicle Speed
- Lambda/Air-Fuel Ratio and much more

Read and Clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) Instantly
The AEM OBD2 Gauge 30-0311 isn’t just about performance monitoring; it’s also a valuable diagnostic tool. With the dedicated “DTC” button, you can command the gauge to scan for stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes. The gauge will then display any detected DTCs, allowing you to quickly identify potential issues. This feature empowers you to understand what might be going wrong with your vehicle and take informed action.
Furthermore, once you’ve addressed the underlying problem, the AEM OBD2 Gauge provides the ability to clear DTCs directly. This eliminates the need for separate scan tools and allows you to reset your vehicle’s computer system after repairs are completed.

Enhanced Visibility and Compact Design
The AEM X-Series OBD2 Gauge boasts a significantly improved display for optimal readability. The bright four-digit LED display is 87% larger than previous AEM digital gauges, ensuring clear visibility even at a glance. Complementing the digital readout is a sweeping LED “needle” around the gauge face, providing a quick, visual reference to the monitored parameter. The 33% increase in overall face display area makes interpreting data easier and more intuitive, enhancing driver awareness.
Despite the larger display, the X-Series Gauge maintains a standard 2-1/16th inch (52mm) diameter housing. This ensures compatibility with most standard gauge pods, offering flexible mounting options. Moreover, thanks to its advanced single-board design, the AEM OBD2 Gauge is remarkably slim, with an overall depth of under 0.825 inches and a cup depth of just 0.200 inches. This shallow profile allows for installation in even tight spaces, practically anywhere you need to monitor your vehicle’s performance.
