Hey folks. I’m working on a project for my Mercedes Benz swapped with Toyota 3.5 V6 (2GRFSE).

I’ve set up the software so far where it can fetch data live from the car and decode RPM, gear selector position, throttle, coolant temp etc via DBC but it looks like most of the body CAN values are not transmitted on the system at all.

I’ve consulted DBC files and trends in the data to find these values, but I’m not sure where to go from here decoding other values transmitted.

I’m worried about:
- engine load
- gear selected (M mode)
- gear demanded (M mode), i.e. 4th selected, transmission in first at standstill

Right now I’ve tapped GND, CANH, CANL from OBD2 port, I think I can get some more data
