Title: VAG COM
Post by: chrisbeg34 on 23 August 2011, 15:48
Has anyone got one that they could plug into my mk3 golf gti, just to run a test to see if any issues lie. I live in Dunstable, beds and if so how much would it cost me.

Thanks for you help in advance. I am sure there are issues but just want to see :grin: and I'm interested to see how they work

dont get me wrong you can get good scanners but dont bother with anything like that get vagcom it is worth it trust me i am a autoelectrition and do this every day and there are so many cheep scanners out there and some will lead you in totaly the wrong direction if you are going to invest in a scanner get vagcom and get a proper lead aswell not a cheap copy from ebay there are real leads on there too but be careful what you get as some can do more damage than good

i can scan your car with vagcom or VAS for £25 and give you a full report printed out on all units on the car engine ecu,abs,airbags the lot and any time mate im open at work from 9 till 6 and on a sat 9 till 1 just let me know and pop down
