ELM327 Europe OBD ??

Hi friends, I Want to know if European cars respond to different obd pid's, I have done tests in a VW and responser were not the usual with other cars, different hex size response, variations, etc. Anyone knows if they use obd pids different than this:

Thank you!!

You are looking at OEM car data packets most likely, you need to send OBD2 queries before some modern ECUs will start answering them.

Any idea how to get UDS commands database? Or full OBD level database?

UDS commands themselves would be ISO-14229.

If you're wanting Parameter IDs and encodings (eg Service 01), then SAE J1979-DA is an Excel spreadsheet with all of them: https://www.sae.org/standards/content/j1979da_202305/ (note that the revision I linked is currently much lower priced than the others for some reason)

Those parameters are also covered in ISO 15031-5, which generally costs more, but might be easier to find shared somewhere online.

To add on to this, search github for similar projects, it's much easier to understand somebody else's code than it is to understand the standards sometimes.

I know the standards and so on but I want any source to get a database of PIDs.

That's literally in the last two standards I referenced.
