Looked into this a few month ago - seems cheapest solution is a serial/usb cable connected to a laptop (available on ebay for about 15 quid or so IIRC), and some freely available software from the net. Do some google'ing and if you're stuck let me know. Far cheaper than a dedicated reader.

Unfortunately I have a Mac and there doesn't seem to be any software knocking about for it. Its still possibly an option though becasue there may be some old laptops kicking about at work that would be up to the job. There is a stand alone unit on Ebay for about £20 as well.Jesus christ they're only £20 or so on ebay, just buy one, they take no working out.

That's the one I was looking at. I'm a little worried that some may offer more functionality than other's but yeah, for £20 its got to worth a punt.http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/U480-OBD-2-SCANNER-CODE-READ...
