USB wire has been improved to be more flexible, more durable. New Improved detachable/replaceable cable – robust 2m long USB A to USB B with a screw strain relief.New Improved car side connector – increases durability and life.Fast Operation – faster on CAN based models than our older generation wired products.VAG model year coverage: 1995 – Current model year*.Fully licensed for VCDS software, acts as the key to unlock the software, no additional software purchase required.Limited to either 3 or 10 different vehicles ( managed by VINs), this interface and VCDS software turns your Windows® PC into a powerful near factory level diagnostic tool for the Do It Yourself Enthusiast. Includes a VCDS software license and the interface you need to connect to your VW/Audi Group vehicles. If possible I would like to save a few ($100 or so) bucks but I am now wondering if I need ross-tehcs cabling to get this to work.New, universal replacement for all our previous interfaces. Sat with laptop awkwardly on lap with all doors shut on vehicle I have updated the drivers from ross's site When trying to "Test" via USB I get "Ross-Tech USB Interface Not Found!" "USB Library Version: 03.01.19" "Interface: Not Found!" Next I select "Options" and attempt to make a connection ("Test") through either COMS1-4 or USB.Īfter switching the port for the USBtoSerial cable in device manager I get this "Port Status: OK" "Interface: Not Found" Upon starting VCDS I get a prompt telling me that this is the "First use/No config files found" The cable generic cable I purchased has "OBD II" on it.

I could then use the VCDS software to enable this option, and possibly others. After finding out that my dealer would not enable the 'convenience window' option here in the US due to it being a liability with the 'pinch factor' of children (or adults) getting their fingers/hands pinched in the windows I went out and bought a generic USB/Serial cable.Īfter doing a bit of research on both this forum and the Ross-tech website it appeared to me that all I would need is a link between my car and laptop.
