Awesome work guys. I've got a cable coming over from China and hope to use your info in the next couple of days. Might even be able to contribute too!

Careful with the cable Kyle..is it a genuine Ross-Tech one? Someone mentioned on here that MQB platform is very picky with regards to interface, so hope you don't end up with an expensive USB plug!

Right, a few style and function updates - the site is a bit clearer, and has the ability to add and view entries. I've simplified it for now, and will add functionality/filters etc as and when needed.

4 people registered :) - wohooo, and getting there with adding the VCDS entries. Still lots to do, but work in progress and all that :)

Haha! I'm no power hungry who*re, so don't worry! I'm more than happy to put the time in to this, it's a worthwhile cause. Definitely not enough hours in the day, have made a couple of edits today but haven't added one yet, simply not good enough!!

Going to try tonight, but my new camera's arrived so I may be tied up... :laugh:

Need time to actually play around with VCDS to find out some more things as well.

I just thought, is it worth using the first post in the thread by Andrew (sootchucker) in an 'About' section as I did? I found this info very useful when first getting into the world of VCDS.

Yup v good point!

Might also fire an email to Rosstech and see if they mind me linking to them etc.

Will do some article posts rather then forum posts for some parts. (like "What is VCDS" and "What do i need to get involved" etc etc.)
