Kinda depends on the car. Volkswagen cars are pretty "hackable" with OBDeleven which is a wireless interface for the hilariously named "VAGCOM" protocol.

OBDeleven

Hang on, have I being saying this wrong for years? I thought it was OBDII or OBD2 ?

It is OBD2, OBDeleven is a Bluetooth dongle you plug into it
