My 2009 1.8tsi (Indian version) connects to VCDS, OBDeleven and Launchtech. But when I try to connect any ELM327, Vgate like basic OBD device there is no communication. I want to setup an OBD display for oil temp, boost and coolant temp. 

When I had my 2011 vrs 2.0tsi, I did use a basic vgate elm327 reader at times with torque pro app. It worked. As well as vcds. Is something wrong with your elm327 dongle? What app are you using?

I know it should work, but some reason its not. Tried with multiple dongles like elm, vgate, and an obd based guage. torque, car scanner and a few more apps across phones. So its the car not the dongles.

Same issue is happening with my car also (skoda laura 1.8 tsi, 2010 model) . Vcds cable connects and works. i tried with other dongles and OBD displays they just show voltage and nothing else. Have you fixed your issue? @tanmay324
