It supports all vehicles from 1996 onwards, offering comprehensive metrics like fuel economy, horsepower, and speed. With its user-friendly design, it can be used as a dash-mounted tool or handheld device, and it includes Windows PC software for in-depth analysis. ## Description DashDyno SPD is an in-vehicle mounted automotive computer that displays real time information about your vehicle's operation. Digital gauges, a trip computer, scan tool, performance meter and data logger are combined into one, easy-to-use instrument. A windshield suction cup mount with quick release makes installation a snap. 1996 or newer cars and trucks are supported. Simply plug DashDyno into the OBD II diagnostic port located under the dashboard. No hard wiring or tools are required for installation. The software is menu driven and wizards ask simple questions making multi-step operations quick and easy. The vehicle diagnostic connector powers the device and offers support for hundreds of different vehicle parameters like instant and average fuel economy, engine RPM, oxygen sensors, and air-fuel ratio. View all data in real time and simultaneously record up to 16 different vehicle parameters. Monitoring your driving habits and adjusting them can save on fuel costs. DashDyno has trip computers to record vehicle statistical data such as fuel economy. The green/yellow/red alarm lights can be individually configured to illuminate or flash if vehicle RPM, throttle position, or speed values exceed your preset limits. Each kit includes the Dyno-Scan for Windows PC scan tool software. This software opens files recorded by DashDyno or you can connect a laptop directly to your vehicle using a USB cable and the DashDyno PC pass-through mode. A simple loose gas cap can cause the vehicle Check Engine light to turn on. Save money and diagnose Check Engine light problems yourself by reading the diagnostic trouble code and turn off the light. Internal databases contain thousands of generic and enhanced code definitions so you'll know exactly what each code means. Vehicle horsepower/torque and acceleration times are measured and graphically displayed. DashDyno is a handheld, in-vehicle display and PC-based scan tool all-in-one. ## Features - All 1996 and later vehicles supported, including American, Asian, and European - Measures fuel economy, horsepower and torque, 0-60mph, 1/8 and 1/4 mile, and top speed - Windows PC scan tool software included - Can be dash mounted or handheld - no hard wiring required - Record GPS data using an external GPS receiver (not included) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Manufacturer | Auterra | | Brand | Auterra | | Item Weight | 2.15 pounds | | Package Dimensions | 12.7 x 7.8 x 3.2 inches | | Item model number | A-501 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | Yes | | Manufacturer Part Number | A501 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Auterra - **Power Source:** Corded Electric - **Operating System:** Windows XP - **UPC:** 718122655366 - **Manufacturer:** Auterra ## Images ![A-501 DashDyno SPD ProPack in-Vehicle Automotive Computer - Scan Tool, Performance Meter, and Data Logger - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41lt5zay5IL.jpg) ![A-501 DashDyno SPD ProPack in-Vehicle Automotive Computer - Scan Tool, Performance Meter, and Data Logger - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41v5AZGhZDL.jpg) ![A-501 DashDyno SPD ProPack in-Vehicle Automotive Computer - Scan Tool, Performance Meter, and Data Logger - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/413iXCMGBQL.jpg) ![A-501 DashDyno SPD ProPack in-Vehicle Automotive Computer - Scan Tool, Performance Meter, and Data Logger - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51TlHkMwM4L.jpg) ![A-501 DashDyno SPD ProPack in-Vehicle Automotive Computer - Scan Tool, Performance Meter, and Data Logger - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51lqvuxMw9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It save'd me 10 MPG on my first long trip! *by C***E on July 10, 2013* I went to Detroit, from Muskegon, to a Detroit Tigers game. (3 hours one way)A fill up later I checked my actual MPG and it went from 28 mpg to 38 mpg!Just keep the actual mpg higher than the average mpg on the Dyno Dash. ### ⭐ Think real hard *by K***K on October 22, 2010* After opening the package,I realized there were no directions for the product. I installed the CD which did have the instruction manual. I would have had to print at least 20 pages(I stopped counting)instead I took my PC to my vehicle to try the unit out. I followed directions to a T,and it wouldn't connect to either of my vehicles. So back inside and did more reading. I finally gave up and went to the company website and found an update that I downloaded. So I tried to upload the update to the dash dyno,it wouldn't accept or read the update. I gave up after 45 mins or so and waited for the wife to get home since she is a computer wiz. It took her 20 mins and something about going in through the back door? Back out and hooked it to my truck,again following the directions. After getting the same error message 4 times,it recognized and connected to my truck. Your supposed to take the memory card out and plug it in the PC to have the CD load info on it. I did that,and reinserted the memory card into the dash dyno. Now the dash dyno won't read the memory card. So I try and load the files from the CD again,same thing. I try a smaller memory card from my camera thinking I may have a bad card. Same thing. So, I decide I'll try to read live data and forget about saving the data. The dash dyno won't work on my '03 Cummins pickup and decide to try it on my '96 Caprice SS. Now it won't connect to it. After several tries it does connect and won't read any live data. I decide to trip a trouble code and see if it will even read and reset trouble codes. It won't even do that. In my opinion,I got a bad unit. But...after going to several websites,I read about frustrated users with similar problems. I also read about happy users. Once the company comes up with better quality control,adds more processor speed so it doesn't take so long going from one file or program to another and provides a printed instruction manual,they may have a decent product. I gave it One star because it does have a sweet mount. Nice heavy duty unit. ### ⭐⭐ Spaghetti Wiring, SD Card pops out easily *by J***O on March 21, 2009* It has wires everywhere. They stick out and make it look stupid. Dont put your hand anywhere near the SD card while it powered. It will pop out lock up the unit and kill the SD card. The stupid card ejects EASILY. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/6871762-a-501-dashdyno-spd-propack-in-vehicle-automotive-computer-scan](https://www.desertcart.be/products/6871762-a-501-dashdyno-spd-propack-in-vehicle-automotive-computer-scan) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-20*
