The professional's interface you need to turn any PC with an
available USB Port into a powerful diagnostic tool for VW, Audi, Seat or
Skoda automobiles
- is fully compatible with all VW, Audi, Seat and Skoda
models through 2009, including models using a direct CAN connection for
diagnostics
- Has a database of more than
11000 fault-codes and measuring-block
texts
- Can use
the new 7-Digit PIN/SKC codes to match new keys in all immobilizer
equipped VW/Audi/Seat/Skoda
models
- Allows you to
view,- log, and graph 3 groups of measuring blocks at
once
- Can access all control modules
which require proprietary VAG modes running the KWP-2000 protocols (2001+
Teves Mk.60 ABS, numerous 2002+ modules), KWP6000 (CAN) and/or KWP7000
(UDS)
- Can
display critical timing information on TDI engines in graphic
form
- Controllers using the new UDS/ODX protocol currently have limited
functionality. See our Revision History for more
information
Features:
- Works with all diagnostic-capable VW/Audi cars in model years 1990
through the current model year, even the latest models which require a
direct CAN connection for diagnostics
- Acts as a "dongle"
-- Activation for the full-function version of VAG-COM is built in! Use
VAG-COM on any suitable PC, no activation codes required.
With VCDS you
can:
- Gain full access to all systems in cars from 1990 through the
current model year
- Scan for and clear DTCs with more than 11,000
fault codes decoded into plain
text
- Alter settings
normally accessible only to dealerships
- Code replacement modules and
- View and log live data
-
Diagnose real failures instead of swapping
parts
CAN is a new means of
communicating with the car for diagnostics used by the latest generations
of VW, Audi, SEAT, and Skoda vehicles. Unlike the older ISO9141 system
which used a single K-line for diagnostic communications, the new CAN-Bus
system uses a differential signalling. CAN is considerably faster than
ISO-9141 (500 kpbs vs. 10.4 kbps). Both new hardware and new software are
required in order to communicate with cars using CAN for
diagnostics.
