Thanks for the reply. I no longer have the older HEX+CAN one as it didn't fully work on my current vehicle.

As a follow up on this thread, I eventually found the fault with the car. On a couple of occasions the car threw up an engine management light resulting in the car going into limp mode and one time completely cut to the point where the car wouldn't restart for several minutes. These were the...

Hi, I moved house about 12months ago and have realised I still have this cable registered to my old address. Is it a simple process to update this through the respective menus of the VCDS Interface Config screens? (I presume it doesn't cost me anything)

Is it the case then that once the car triggers a 30 day countdown for servicing notification (or whatever it has been set to), does that remain there until an actual SRI reset is performed? So in actual fact if i was to 'tweak' any attribute to alter the countdown threshold (based on mileage or...

Ok thanks both for your responses on this. The car has an 'inspection services' on the records that occurring at 35,185miles so that makes sense. When it was sold to me by the dealer a note 'From flexible to fixed' appears on the record at 41,709miles. The first thing i did was drop the...

Hello Uwe, Log file data attached.

Hi all, My Skoda Superb is popping up saying an inspection service is due in 8000miles or 23 days, but also that the actual oil service in 8000miles or 388days. The oil has been changed about 4000 miles ago so want to suppress this alert till the actual oil service is due - is there some correct...

I'll be honest, I don't think that is related as that error relates to the radar module on the front of the car which I already know is broken. The car openly tells me those associated safety functions are not available. I'm just looking for advice on what I could monitor on the car which would...

Ok thanks for the info. I never ended up using VCDS in the end as the vehicle wasn't as good as it looked on the pictures once I was on-site. Out of curiosity are you able to share where else to look to help validate the mileage?

Hello there, I have a 2013 Golf TDI Mk7 that has a very intermittent hesitation which is only experienced when on the lightest throttle, cruising between 1500-2000 rpm and at slow speeds (up to 30mph). Some days it may hesitate a couple of times on a trip, others days not at all. When the...

Hi, I'm going to look at a second hand car and want to see if I can compare the miles on the odometer to what's viewable through instrument adaptions. I don't want to lose a VIN license as I'm not 100% sure I want the car just yet. Will I be able to perform the viewing of the odometer or will...

Hi all, I read on another source that one should avoid using VCDS on a laptop connected to the mains as this can cause some ‘ground loop’ issue. My laptop has a good battery so haven’t had a need to connect to the mains yet. I seem to recollect using my previous VCDS cable with mains and never...

OK thanks Uwe for the feedback. I re-tried with bonnet open - no change. I also tried putting in those option codes - no change. What i did do that worked was to go into the 'Security access -16' option of advanced function section and enter the code it prompted me with. Once I went back into...

Hello Ross-Tech, I finally upgraded from my older cable and treated myself to a new HEX-V2 cable so I can start using it on my 2020 VW T6.1 Transporter. One of the things I wanted to do was enable the acoustics when locking/unlocking. I found the respective settings... .....but upon trying...

Hi there, If I have a registered VCDS cable has been purchased through one of the approved agents (eg in U.K.), can I purchase the VIN upgrade through the Ross-Tech website as opposed to going back through the original agent (cut out the middle man)?

Yes that autoscan was from my KM7 Golf, not the T6.1 Van I have. Here's a scan of my van, albeit done with the older cable type until I get the newer version: Monday,01,November,2021,13:24:57:12050 VCDS -- Windows Based VAG/VAS Emulator Running on Windows 7 x64 VCDS Version: 20.12.0.1 (x64)...

Interesting to know - I guess I will have a look and find out when I get a cable :thumbs:
