Hi everyone, has anyone had any experience with these Chinese models?
Seems cheap and I'm sure that of I buy one it probably won't work.

Hello everyone. Seems there is an issue with Telstra (possible others) blocking email from our server. If you are trying to sign up I would suggest a different email if possible. If you're trying to reset your password and it fails please use the Contact Us page:

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

jigs: Don't waste your money! It's entirely likely that this unit won't have the label files to recognise the control modules in your mk7 (which are relatively new because of the MBQ platform). At best you might be able to do an auto-scan, but that's about it. I'm guessing little to no access to the Long Coding Helper and probably no much access to any of the 3,00 plus adaptation channels in the mk7.Originally posted by jiggs257 View Post
But the real reason why you shouldn't buy one of these units is because it supports the theft of intellectual property that rightly belongs to Ross-Tech. Uwe Ross built-up the company from scratch and his products have a high reputation (rightfully). These clone suppliers rely on RT's reputation for their business model - We as buyers ought not condone intellectual theft. It's bad morally to buy these cables and it's ultimately a bad investment financially.Please don't PM to ask questions about coding, or vehicle repairs. The better place to deal with these matters is in the forum proper. That way you get the benefit of the wider expertise of other forum members! Thank you.Comment
