Have you downloaded VCDS Lite??  That's what they released for use with Ebay leads.

Hi yes ive got vcds lite 1.1 it wouldnt work as im on windows 7 64bit home premium, and the 309.1 wouldnt work with that. I'm sat in the car now trying to sort it, i need it to turn on cruise control this weekend, and also need to run a full scan on the car, fingers crossed its working, i just need to work out how to use it now  :laugh:
