ardandy 0 Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 After much messing around and asking people every now and then I thought I might as well just buy a chuffing vag-com set.Would this give me everything I need?

hellsVR6 0 Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 You just missed out on a group discount buy of Vagcom, unlucky mate!Talk to The Goth (I think) or at least there is a chance someone off here in your area has it anyway, and most have offered to help out and share nicely Link to post Share on other sites

SankysVR6 1 Posted November 13, 2007 Report Share Posted November 13, 2007 I've got the lead and the software but only for the 16pin OBD 2 connector. If you want to buy lead in the second link to try on my set-up you more then welcome Link to post Share on other sites

spanky 0 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Not been on the site for a while, but I have a handheld reader you could have used (but saying that, it is for OBD2). I live in Ilkley, infact I'm sure I saw you, or someone in a very similar Corrado to the one in your avatar, driving towards Ilkley on saturday afternoon. I was In a Dragon green golf VR.

james4287 1 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 have you had the lead from ebay yet and does it work ok?i bought one suggested as 16 pin for use with vag-com for about £12, the 16 pin plug was the poorest fit ever and i couldn't get the vag-com software to communicate with it no how. seller wouldn't respond to emails either!to this time, if possible i'd like to go with a personal reccomendation!

ardandy 0 Posted December 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 I'll try and find the seller but it was a standard uk VAG-COM type sale. He delivered it ASAP as I asked as well so no probs there!Lead works fine too, going straight into a serial port. USB to serial adaptors won't work. Link to post Share on other sites
