Anyone any experience of the above scan tool? NO... Just googled it - VAG group tool - watched a youtube vid - looks to do what VCDS does (ish) but without all the live data/actuation tests/learn software. But at £70 - what you got to loose?

Hmm not quite what I want then….
I’ve asked the eBay seller if it does live data but no reply yet.. But if you say it doesn’t then I’ll not bother with it..

Thinkdiag is good for most stuff I've used ut on, it needs Internet connection though.

It is over 6-7 yrs old… You will not regret the purchase. Have a read thru this link - it will give you a feel for what VCDS will do and "how to do it". wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

As Remmington has mentioned before, the latest pro-interfaces are really, really fast - I'm saving a lot of time, not least that 50% of my trade is VAG these days. I reckon I have saved around 30mins a week - enough for another pot of tea.....
