Even people with vcds or a good diagnostic machine will have trouble looking for the ecu estimated mileage. I know I’ve been messing with vcds for years and I wouldn’t know where to look for that estimated mileage.
I intended my response as more of a warning; it is not a completely undetectable crime if you illegally wind back the odometer! [I am NOT implying that the OP intends to do anything illegal]
As for finding it in VCDS there is even a dedicated function to show you the estimated mileage and as other have said it is in the header of every report run in VCDS [the online manual on the VagCom site is a great reference]. I bought both of our current Audis from new, however when I bought my son and daughter's cars (Polo and Fabia) the cars were around 6 months old and it was the first thing I checked before I bought them...strange looks from the sales team but they had little option other than to let me check the mileage and also for fault codes.
