so i got myself vag com 409.1, im just wondering what cable i need to connect it to my 02 A4, i just wanna read codes and check stats, i bought a OBD 2 scanner off ebay for 60 bucks and that peice of garbage reads everything but audi, the seller says it doesn't read audi after i received it, but yet the installation dvd cover has a pic of an audi R8

thanks for the reply, but i have no idea which one i need to buy, i dont wanna chance it again and lose 50 bucks, is there any way of knowing which one i need for an 02 a4 3.0?

thanks

I got a 20.00 ebay one and connected it to a cheap tablet i had with a serial port. It works amazing on my 2001 s4, and i read codes for any friends who have vw's and audis. Works on my friends 2004 a4.

lol 301 i think lol OLD version,
I tried other ones but no dice.

Here's a link to the ross tech info for what you need

Ross-Tech: VAG-COM: Audi A4 / S4 / RS4 Applications

i just grabbed my cable to see, it says KKL V409 on it

I too am looking for a Vag-com cable for a 2008 TT, 2.0 FSI? I really do not want to pay $400. I looked at a few sites but it seems complicated, Ebay has several but they seem to be v409 - they indicate v805 is required for vehicles after 2007?

Any help pls.

I noticed on Ecutool.com that they have the Revo software with their vag-com. I trust this is a proper license? Does this mean I can do the vag-com stuff and adjust ecu settings instead of a GIAC or APR? Exciting but I don't want to screw up either??

Does anyone have experience with this?
