VCDS 908 - faulty
« on: 11 September 2009, 19:05 »
Anyone else having probs with the latest VCDS version 908? 

Downloaded it from Ross Tech, ran the prog, but it doesn't actually install the vcds.exe prog!!

Any clues

haven't tried mine yet - was more concerned about getting rid of the damn airbag light

I'll give it a go tonight if i've got time and report back

If it goes wrong I'm blaming you  :tongue:

Right, I re-downloaded it from Ross-Tech a few days later, and whilst it had the same release version, the downloaded file was slightly different size, and this time it happliy installed OK. :afro:
