Have a 2017, need a solution to display E %. I've read older threads saying Dash Command and Torque Pro both work but no one details if they do for 2017s and newer. For those using apps for such features can you please speak to what app and if you had to load a custom PID?
If not using these what other options are people using? Id rather not drop $500 on a gauge but beggers cant be choosers i guess...

Bump for you. I use Dash Logic on my 2014. Of course if you’re logging your driving you can use HP Tuners’ VCM scanner. Reading Ethanol Content and Alcohol Percentage (always wait for them to read the same since it takes a few miles for the Ethanol to mix with the fuel before you’re good to go)

I haven't tried it on a C7, but on my C6Z, the Dashlogic PID is 27 for alcohol (e85) content and it works great.

I believe torque should work for you. I have setup customers in 2018 camaros with an obd adapter, torque pro, and a custom pid and it works just fine. None of my vette 2017+ customers have been interested so I can't guarantee it will work, however I'll say I'm 90% confident that it will. If you have an android phone already worst case you're out $25 if you get a cheap adapter.

Yep this worked, not Torque Pro, but used OBD Fusion, im sure torque would work. Custom PID and she's displaying E content. All for 5 bucks, (already had bluetooth adapter) exactly what i wanted!!!
