VAG-COM 10.6.2 HEX CAN USB DIAGNOSTIC INTERFACE KIT

I asked the seller if he had any more coming up and got the following reply:

At the moment I'm not selling 10.6.2 cables, the reason is that I'm not 100% happy with current supplies as the is a problem with long coding on some modules.

I'm waiting for delivery of a new 10.6.3 cable to evaluate and I hope this work with no issues.

I'll let you know the results and if I'll be stocking this new cable.

I haven't noticed any problems with the long coding yet but i havent used it too much to be honest.

He could have told me that before i bought it though necause i emailed him a few times regarding it

What is the 'long coding'?

No prizes for anyone who answers along the lines of "the opposite of short coding"

Cheers. So Long Coding is the ability to take advantage of parameters that VCDS software doesn't understand?

Is that about it?

[quinnii]

That's pretty much what I understand from it
