You can use elm but nothings as good as pp2000 , invest in a lexia 3 interface it will be the best money you`ve ever spent as long as you intend to keep your car then sell it on.

Reads all pugs no matter what model/age ,can code keys/radios/injectors , can add new parts like trip computer ,electric wing mirrors ,can reset counters in the eloys system ,did i mention its what the peugeot dealers use.
i started of buying cheaper stuff but when it came it wouldn`t read my 2002 307 so ended up buying pp and at that time it was double what it is now , i have since got my money back and some by reading other cars ,nice little earner.

I know what your thinking i`ve been there .

Any generic software of ebay will read codes depending on age of vehicle , but as i say will be very basic and not that accurate .
