Hi All

I am considering purchasing VCDS. Is this the correct thing?

http://mi-uk.co.uk/epages/950004761.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/950004761/Products/VAG1553E

What is the script with the licencing? Is it only licenced for use on 1 vehicle?

I also need to get a laptop but have an old PC I could use. Can I just use a standard USB extension cable to reach the pc?

Cheers

Dave

Yes.

The cable is the license basically. A Hex can cable works on an unlimited number of vehicles.

You should be OK with USB extension less than 5M. But it is a good idea to keep the doors shut when using vcds.

Thanks. Where is the best place to purchase? Is that a good price in the link above?

Rose Tecch has a distributor list on their website. There's Gendan or Marshall and at least one more. Proper ones will all be about the same price.

Anyone used the company below?

No, but they are a listed distributor of Ross-Tech. I think they will be fine. And the price varies very little.
