I notice VCDS mentioned in various posts. What are they please and what do they cover?

I believe stands for Vag Com Diagnostics System.

 

Is a laptop/cable based program made by Ross-Tech and sells for circa £250-£270 depending on the £:$ rate. 

 

I have it in Exmouth, and it comes in very useful for diagnostics / logging boost / altering coding.

There is even a dedicated forum for it

They are very nasty, that's why you should always use protection, and without the correct cream/antibiotics they can end up covering everything.

Perhaps seek a medical specialist :yes: then assess your lifestyle choices

Where do you get one of these? What cables etc are actually required?

Look at the Ross tech website, it has all the info and a list of UK suppliers ,- don't be tempted by cheap cables on eBay which be the all singing versions, they are fake.
