Not sure of the ethics of mentioning other forums on here, so not going to post a link, but, if you google golfmk7 and then do a search on the obvious forum, you will find a few useful threads. OBD11 is quite big in the US and Aus, but a few of the regular posters are also on here, so I guess one of them will be along soon.
Not quite sure about the relationship of OBD11 with VW or Rosstech, who make the, far more expensive, VCDS tool, but, it is cheap and it seems to work very well. Let us know how you go on.
