  • VAG-COM scanning, who can help

    Hi fellas, I am sure that the forum members would be glad to have help from the owners of VAG-COM cables around the country.

    Other forums have a sticky with the details of members and their availability.

    I'll go first.

    I have the usb cable and can scan anything except the early 2 wire stuff. I live in Adelaide.

    PM me to make contact.

    Nice idea, will need to sort it into a nice sorted section by state at some stage...

    Edit: I now have the genuine cable

    And have moved to SE Melbourne.


    I'm in Campbelltown (Sydney) and have the FleeBay knock off cable but can still do lots of things, just not everything, especially on MkV's. A simple block change or code read/clear should be right though.

    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

      I own a licensed VCDS ( Vagcom cable) can scan ANY including the 2 wire jobbies from way back. I have VagTacho for anyone needing distance to empty on your Golf or Bora.( works well if the cluster is VDO). I have a wide range of fuel pressure testers, Vac gauges, stethoscopes, oscilloscope, current clamp. If you are using your own Vchecker etc i can interpret your fault code for you.
      i now own a Launch Diagun palm pilot and can read your aunties Bimmer, your uncles Merc and your cousins Nissan.
      I am based in Brizzy
      Cheers

                  Brisbane genuine VAG com here, but I'm a looooong way from a master of it. Guess I should actually READ the online tutorials....

                    I've got a V-Checker if anyone want's a scan on a cruise or at a get together just ask as I keep it in the car.
                    If anyone wants a scan on a weekend or something shoot me a PM and I'll try my best to help.
                    As with Cogdoc, I'm definitely no guru with it but I can scan modules and clear fault codes no worries.
                    Also I'm not after any photos of your sis, mum, nana/grandma, daughter, wife, gf, life partner etc...
                    Should also add that I don't want any photos of the male opposites of the above either or yourself for that matter (wouldn't put it past Coggie though)...
                    Cheers,
                    Trent

                    EDIT: Just a note/head's up, that as I no longer have the R32, I sold the scanner on, so cannot assist anymore. Cheers.

                        Its for carrying out diagnostic checks of any ECUs in the car, using the OBD port. www.ross-tech.com is the manufacturer and has loads of info.

                        It's pretty much the same as the system used by the dealer, to check the car out.

                            Just got my hands on a V-Checker (thanks Fuzion!) - absolutely no idea how to use it yet but if someone wants to help me learn on their car (or mine) then I'm in Glen Iris, Melbourne. Drop me a PM.

                              I have a knock-off Micro-CAN VAGCOM cable that works with VCDS in shareware mode. I've tested it on my Tiguan and it'll scan for error codes no problem. Should work with any CANBUS based VW.

                              If you'd like to test it I am in Panania, Sydney.
