Another newbie question -
Its obvious there's no water temp gauge for the motor (or batteries) by default in the dashboard.
Is there a selection that I cannot find that brings up the engine temp?
Is it available via the OBD port?
Has anyone ever fitted a water temp gauge?

AND: Is it possible to add Apps to the Mitsubishi touch screen unit?
For instance, if I wished to install TORQUE and a BT OBD so it could read the temp and perhaps oil pressure or whatever else Mitsubishi provide, is there a way to add Apps?
 
Yes, engine temp if definitely available by OBD port.
I was playing with resistors on engine temp. sensor in order to see if I can fool and disable the engine startup in cold weather.
Finally it didn't work as I wanted and went to fully shut it off with a kill main engine relay switch.

I think it's worth providing more details on that in a separate topic. I'm interested in this.
