thank you for your reply, If it was solely for MEMS 1.9 / 3 Pscan would be a good choice, I want a diagnostic tool I can also use on our MR2 Roadster & Ford Fiesta, our son’s Mini Cooper S (2020 model year) and our daughters BMW M4,

I know most if not all these Chinese diagnostic tools will cope with the above OBDII, I would rather not having to buy one dedicated for the MEMS 1.9

So I’m only asking if anyone has knowledge of WoW compatibility with MEMS 1.9 surly this should have nothing to do with whether Pscan is an advertiser or a supporter of the forum,

isn’t this a bit like saying you don’t talk about other tyre makes that work well with MGF/TF’s as one of the tyre manufacturers XXXX is a good contributor of the forum and it would be rude to mention what other tyres are like on the MGF?

I’m sure there are owners out there who have tried other diagnostic tools, I would like their opinions if they have any to share

I had been using a Chinese copy of the Delphi DS 150E diagnostic tool in connection with a MEMS 1.9 successfully for a few years

Now it’s a bit temperamental so was thinking of replacing it with a different Chinese diagnostic tool, when I purchased the Delphi, the sellers would list the cars it was compatible with and the Rover MGF was one that was listed

Looking now for a replacement I don’t see many scan tools mentioning the cars the are compatible with apart from the few that say the likes of Ford, Toyota, BMW, Reno, VW popular cars, but nothing other than the common cars

I was looking at a (Chinese copy) diagnostic tool called “WoW Snooper” my question is has anyone any experience if this works on an MGF with MEMS 1.9?

Many thanks

This is our MG TF we bought new in 2004, it’s the cheap 115 MF TF version with a 1600cc engine, it served us well over the years,

Yes we had HGF after only 6 years of ownership with 38K ~ 39K miles on the clock, apart from that it was a pretty reliable car

In 2014 the engine let go for the second time, we were driving home one afternoon and all of a sudden with a big BANG it lost all power,

When I cranked the engine all I could hear from the engine was what sounded like grinding metal and not turn over, I stopped attempting to start the car immediately and called up Green Flag to take us and the car home

When home I called out our regular guy who used to service the MG TF for us, he thought either something with the pistons had given up or (unlikely) the belt had slipped causing the valves to hit the piston heads

Either way it was going to cost us far more to fix the car then the car was worth, so we parked it on our driveway and there it’s stood since 2014, over time I’ve taking off the odd part to use on my Elise



Now I’m in the process of having a double garage built I’ve turned my attention to striping our MG TF down in to spare parts and help keep other MGF/TF’s on the road

I know if I called out the salvage people to take it away for me, they would just end up piling other cars on top of it without much parts taken off, ending up all being crushed

I’ve seen this before when going to local scrap yards in the passed, if parts aren’t taken off cars soon enough the whole car gets crushed,

Till my garage is up I don’t know when I’ll be making a start, but fingers crossed sometime in early 2022

I’ve never stripped an MGF/TF before so this should be some fun, I did once strip a Rover 100 to build a kit car but that was 21 years ago
