Where can i get my car scanned ...agu?
« on: 10 January 2013, 20:48 »
Hi all,

As above i have an agu and cant seem to read the ecu with scanners.
Iv'e looked online and used the search feature and found out that the
agu has no possative connection on the obd port ....for some stuped reason ...?
Now i need to get the car scanned ...so where is the best place to get it scanned
or is there a way of doing something with the obd port ...?

it links up as soon as you plug it in, with ignition off plug it in, the unit will light up and turn your key to the second notch.....job done search for faults or you can get a vagcom cable if you have a laptop.
