Thanks.

For what you are looking for you might not need the full beans.  A simple OBDII lead/bluetooth may be enough for 10% of the cost

OBD11Pro requires android based mobile phone & internet connection whist using the phone.....

 

& it does most the fault code erasing, adaptions, coding etc that VCDS will do ..& works on all VAG cars...

 

 

However if you do not have android & internet connection where you park your car & want to do the very advanced measuring values logging etc then VCDS is they only way to go....which is why it is way more expensive than OBD11pro

Went to the ELECTRICIAN and they diagnosis the problem with Airbag. The Airbag fault kept coming back aftet erasing it. Electrician told me it will cost £205 plus vat as cabling+harness need to look and get it fix and could be sensor.

 

I am Not sure..anyone had similar problem? Am I being ripped off or they quoted me the right price? 

 

 

An airbag fault is often caused by a dodgy connector under one of the front seats, did the electrician do a diagnostic scan as that will tell which airbag the fault is with?

 

If it's a dodgy connector a temporary fix is often achieved by separating the connector and remaking it.

Electrician told me that there are no harnesses under the passenger side front seat, he will need to check wire in door panel and total cost £205 excluding VAT.

 

In the past air bag fault disappeared  but this time airbag seems to come back everytime it's rest it.

There is almost certainly a side airbag in the seat and possibly an occupancy sensor in the seat belt buckle - I would be finding another electrician who knows Skodas better.

I would definitely be looking elsewhere, but it's your choice.
