Hi and welcome.

A quick bit of google suggests a 99-on K11 should have OBDII which means you can fit a Scangauge or similar. These read various values from the engine ECU including fault codes.

You will need to see if you can find the OBDII connector which will be somewhere near the steering column usually underneath the dash somewhere. I haven't found anything that says exactly where - your manual might tell you though.

Otherwise you have the traditional gauges that help such as a vacuum and a rev counter which can be got fairly cheaply online.

Cheers

A.

You may find the MPGuino will work, I haven't used it though. Wiki page with links on where to get assembled ones is here.

Good luck.
