Phat VR6 3 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 he says its OBD1? I didn't think you could use vag.com on it? Link to post Share on other sites
UnitedMotorsport 55 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Buy it direct from rosstech, and buy a 16pin to 2x2 adapter. The 2x2 adapter will allow you to read an OBD1 car. Link to post Share on other sites
