Thank you for the kind words! Something I'd like to mention, what features and functions you have with VCDS depends on what features and functions the control module you are connected to allows. Vehicles with the same body, same sheet metal, can have different variations of electronics in them. Regards.

In Brazil we want so bad to own one of this but is IMPOSSIBLE!!! We could buy one only from europe, price+shipping+taxes costs some ~2k brazilian real, its the price of one good water pump for a ea888, or 2 good tyres 235/45 r17 fron conti or an miche primacy 4. Thats a huge expense!!! In US this costs 199? or 149? in europe some 200 euros? thats 10% of an low tier salary, in brazil 2k is about 2 months of low income work just for an scanner!!! You are LOSING tons of money here, the people just buy an chinese crap copy for 150 brazilian real (~30 bucks) and replace it when they break!!! I want the original rosstech vcds but for a not ridiculous price! Please, we need a local dealer for your products right away! WV sells a lot here since forever!

@@galc9293 I believe the problem they have is this: Selling a digital online product like this means it transcends international boarders. Volkswagen exist in almost every market and have the distribution network to sell the vehicles at lower prices in lower regions. Software cannot do the same. If it is sold cheap in one nation because the cost of living is lower, then everybody buys at the lowest price. Sadly this means regions like Brazil are the losers. I would encourage VCDS to look at locking cheaper versions of software by physical postal address, not only VIN. It can be done.

@@omardude39 i concour, price is an problem but its ok for what offers, the real problem is price PLUS expensive shipping plus taxes cause by this expensive shipping they use. 400 us dolars its fine, not cheap but fine, but here this will cost almost 800 us dolars, thats a real problem... local distribution its a MUST!

have a tool that has most of ODIS systems shouldnt be allowed, all security options have to be used through ODIS and ODIS REQUIRES the user to sign up and have a CLEAR, i repeat CLEAR police record. this tool would allow thieves to break in and adapt new keys very easily.

I have owned a VCDS since the VAG-COM days, and it has saved me a ton of money, time, and grief on my 2001 Passat wagon.

I just received my VCDS Cable i ordered from Ross Tech which is located out in Pa. They process each order as they are received. Plus they ship exactly as you request them to ship your VCDS Cable. Now i have to get the software which if i fully understood the representative i have to contact them back for the software to be sent i think. It has the update info as well support info attached to the Hex-V2 dual -k & CAN interface device they send you that you order. I strongly advise anyone to verify with Ross-Tech which specific cable actually is required for your needs. So your not placing order for wrong item ..

Brillant vid fella! ive had vcds a few years + just learnt a whole lot of new stuff ;-)

Just received mine yesterday. Have a 2003 TT with a few issues . . ABS, and Lambda sond. ABS is caused mainly by the car being dormant for 8 months of the year. . and the VCDS pointed me to Lambda oxygen sensor 2. Thanks for your video.

Very nice video! This is what I was looking for, a nice and concise explanation of what is VCDS and what it does in just 13mins. Well presented and narrated too. Thank you.

Excellent and clear explanation. One question: I had a tow bar installed on my skoda kamiq. Everything works fine except front assist which is now unavailable. Anything to do in VCDS to solve issue?

Thank you for that insight I’m in the process of deciding which model to buy 👍👨🏻‍🏭

Great video. My VW Jetta has DSG. Can I see the live clutch engagement percent or clutch pressure with this device?

Can you send a link for this VCDS reader? Can’t seem to find it. Thanks!

Very good video, will VCDR enable/allow the retractle mirror to close and open from keys d bottom

VCDS actually has more options than ODIS. Also doesn’t require yearly fees. But yes I agree you should have VCDS if you own a VAG-COM vehicle.

awesome thanks. looks good, have an s3 and rs3

Very very good video to watch. I would like to ask something as I do have issue with my vw sharan 2014 and I can not delete the codes after installing the new one. Is there any help please?? I have few pictures with fault code but not sure how to attach here. Any help please? Thanks

i bought mine around 2015 £250ish from gendam in the uk ...used it first time today to do my rear pads on my mk7 golf to wind the parking brake back and then back on....worked great but my car was uds...i was thinking it would be can...so was a bit different to do but youtube helped me sort it....all done and test drove..100% now..well happy

So my 2012 Audi has been sitting for 3 weeks at Audi as it was towed in due to my car not starting at all or any lights coming on. When Audi noticed it had an aftermarket remote start they said technician don’t want to diagnose or touch the car until the remote start comes out completely. Is this VCDS something that I could have used to pin point what the issue was without removing the remote start or? Please any info is greatly appreciated. I’m also still waiting to get the remote start pulled out, so car is still currently just sitting at dealership

If I was to add fog lights to my 2019 Tiguan SE, would I be able to connect them with the factory setting and use a factory switch which has the option to turn on the fog lights?

Would i be able to use a regular obd2 cable to usb connect or does it have to be a ross tech cable?

Thanks for the video - however where do I get VCDS from and for what price? You need to add links to the products in your description. Cheers

Are u also able to code in stuff like door entry lights and startup needle sweep

Thank you very much for the valuable information

I just got the unlimited vin vcds lite that works with phones. I’m super excited about being able to fine tune my alh in now I can see what’s going on.

It's really great and amazing tool. How much would it be for unlimited vin please?

Great video, thank you for posting. I just ordered at VCDS - 10 vin unit. I have had Audis for 25 years, mostly always under warranty so , never needed one. I now have an out of warranty 2017 Q3 and in the US , Audi dealers near me cannot find technicians , so it is 4-56 weeks to get an oil change and service reminders reset. So I did my own oil change 6 months ago and found they had not tightened and never replaced the drain plug ( I don't believe judging by the paint on the drain plug ) , I had lost a quart of oil , belly pan was wet under oil pan.... So, I am DONE with Audi dealerships, I am mechanical but never owned a code scanner. So, anyway, I appreciate being able to see what I am getting into.

I find dealers give such things as oil changes to their junior technicians, while the high-paid technicians work on higher value and more difficult repairs. So your more likely to get someone who doesn't know, or care, what torque to tighten your drain plug and filter at, and who may even grab an air impact gun to tighten it. I got my previous Volvo S60 back after dealer oil change with the aluminum oil drain crush washer tightened so tight the washer had been squished paper thin, and was actually pushed out around the base of the drain plug. Another time I had my TDI Jetta in for service, and the technician screwed up the installation of the replacement fuel filter, which caused it to gush fuel all over the inside of the engine compartment, before I checked for the strong smell of diesel fuel. Fortunately diesel fuel has a low flash point, but still, there was a significant fire risk. At least they repaired the leak and gave me an engine compartment flush. As a result I try to do as many of the service items myself. I can ensure fasteners are torqued properly and can inspect for potential problems before they become big problems.
