Monitor specific KIA parameters in real-time, including engine and automatic transmission advanced sensor data by adding this plugin to Torque Pro.

Advanced EX is a plugin for Torque Pro, extending the PID/Sensor list with more than 10 specific parameters from KIA vehicles, including:

* AT Turbine and Output Speed (*)
* AT Oil Temperature (*)
* AT Damper Clutch Lockup (*)
* AT Current Gear (*)
* CVVT Oil Temperature
* Fuel Injector Pulse Width / Duty Cycle
* Knock Retard (*)
* Wastegate Duty Cycle (*)
* Turbo Boost Pressure (*)

Sensors marked with (*) are not available on all cars, as it depends on special engine/parts like Turbo and/or Automatic Transmission.

For cars with automatic transmission, Lockup is really cool to monitor during a long road trip or even while driving in the city. As described on KIA Service Manuals, the Damper Clutch Lockup shows in real-time the actual Torque Converter lockup percentage, and as it approaches 100% the slip should be near zero.

*PLEASE NOTE* that other KIA models/engines may be supported, but the plugin was tested only on the following models/engines:

* Carnival/Sedona 3.8 V6
* Carnival/Sedona 2.7 V6
* Carnival/Sedona 2.2 CRDI
* Cee'd 1.4/1.6 MPI
* Cee'd 2.0 MPI
* Cee'd 1.4/1.6 CRDI
* Cee'd 2.0 CRDI

4) Go to Torque Pro "Settings"

5) Make sure that you can see the plugin listed also on Torque Pro by clicking "Settings" > "Plugins"> "Installed Plugins".

8) From the menu, choose "Add predefined set"

9) If your license is validated on Google Play you should see an entry for your engine. You may see predefined sets for other engine types, so make sure you pick the right one. If you don't see anything, probably you have an installation problem or validation error on Google Play. In this case, go back and repeat the installation procedure.

10) After clicking on the entry from the previous step, you should see several entries added to the Extra PIDs/Sensors list.

Note: Some sensors will be calculated real-time based on others. Make sure that you keep all sensors to avoid calculation errors.
