Hi all,
I bought an official brand new VCDS the other day so willing to help other forum members. I also have a dedicated laptop for it. I'm not willing to let either of them go out of my sight though.
Location: I'm based in Uckfield (East Sussex) and Burgess Hill (West Sussex).
Experience: Fault code scanning but that's about it as I've only had it 2 days.

Hi,
I've just installed a Kufatec Fiscon Audi Basic Plus bluetooth unit to my head unit (large screen with drop down screen and satnav built in). The Radio unit still says phone not installed when I press phone on head unit even though my phone is paired in and I can dial out and speak via roof mounted mic and the music mutes, the persons voice comes through the stereo system (http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=stereo+system). I cant use steering wheel controls or answer incoming call though.
Looking on net it looks like i need to connect VAG-COM and go in to instruments, radio (56) and change some numbers so the radio knows it's there and it enables steering wheel buttons.
Is this something you know about/can code in for a few beers or some sort of payment?
Cheers Paul

Hi all happy VCDS users... i need the inspection service indicator reset... My VCDS is too old, I'm on v10.1 which was fine for me A4 B8 but now I have a A6 C7 (2015) and I can scan but that's about all... any chance someone close to Farnham, Surrey (GU9) can help out for a beer or so?
I thought it was free to update your VCDS ?

The software is free as long as you have a genuine dongle. If it's a knock off it won't. You go to ross tech site to download the latest version.

Enabling dual rear foglights where fitted but only a single unit has been enabled at the factory

Hello guys, could really do with some advice/expertise with the above.
DPF, MIL and Glow lights on.
Had this before, had some to come and clean however the sensor was suspected as the problem, changed, cleared faults and away I went.
Car went into limp mode on the A5, just happened to pull up next to an rac breakdown truck. He plugged in and suggested maybe the dpf had broken inside because of the "efficiency below threshold"
Many differing opinions online. Any help or advice would be appreciated as this is my "new" disability car I treated myself to.
Thanks guys.

This is a list of people on this forum who have Vagcom / VCDS and who are willing to help other forum members. It is intended for posts by non-businesses. It is intended that this list will enable fellow forum members to help each other for FREE..... I say free, but really it would be rude not to provide a few beers for their trouble. Also the idea is to get you to buy Vagcom / VCDS yourself once you have experienced what it can do.
Anyone looking for help here please check that the person you are talking to is not a business otherwise it will cost you more than a case of beer!
Anyone looking for help, please DO NOT post questions in this thread, start your own thread or send a message.
RIGHT THEN FREAKS.... I've added an index per page. I've not listed any one post wonders and I've also identified "trade" members. If any of you find any dead posts and don't get a response from the member listed, send me a message and I will remove them from the index.

Original post below....
I'm new here and don't know if a thread like this exists so I thought I'd start one anyway.
The idea is that members can locate other members who have VAG-COM and that are willing to help.
Please note, this thread is to be used by those with VAG-COM. Any request for scans or help should be made in the general VAG-COM Information & Help (https://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=42) section of the forum
Please DONT post questions on this thread PM User in your location or start a new thread
For those that don't know about vagcom, it is basically a PC based diagnostic software that provides you, the humble car owner, the ability to mend your own car! To briefly summarise what it can do;
1, Read and clear fault codes.
2, Monitor, display and log various system outputs (very useful for diagnosing intermittant problems)
3, Re-code engine car / parts for example if you swap your seats to those without side airbags where previously had them, the airbag controller will need re-coding.
4, Restore 'basic' settings, for example, the infamous throttle body alignment.
It does much more as well and in my opinion having vagcom to any home mechanic is as important as having a socket set!
Anyway, perhaps this should be a 'sticky' or if there is already a similar thread that should be made a sticky ?
I'll start in a new reply below, if others could follow the same format...
Please add me to the list of people with VCDS.
Version is 15:something so won't cover the newest cars, and I have absolutely no intention of updating, as it simply 'works' and I hate all things Laptop/Systems related. I won't be updating, even if requested.
My experience - minimal but know my way around to put service lights out and run a diagnostic report. After that, it's down to you and your homework on the internets.
Location - Isle of Arran, Scotland.

Anyone in the Scarborough UK area?
Got a sticky problem that needs unsticking!
08 A3 CR170 that's had its immobiliser bypassed, we are assuming because it's knackered.
I've a used Clockset with accompanying ecu, locks, ignition, key etc but have zero clue!!
Very scant info from the greasy seller so we've got what we've got to work with.
Any help would be ace.
Sincerely
Patrick.

To do that properly you need someone with ODIS and GEKO security clearance.

Can you update my details below please as I have moved and no longer own VCP but can now unlock SFD:
Location:Nr. (was Folkestone) New Romney in S.E. Kent
Interface:VCDS HEX-NET Registered
(VCP Registered - similar to VCDS but can do a few extra things like VIM etc no longer have VCP, Do have OBDeleven as well as VCDS purely to unlock SFD on newer cars)
Experience: I am experienced with data logging, scanning, coding adaptation changes across the VAG range.

VWAF VCDS User Map now available here - VWAF User Location Map - VCDS - Google Maps (https://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?msid=209563024277134815192.0004c505be14b22419db e&msa=0&dg=feature)
This is a list of people on this forum who have Vagcom / VCDS and who are willing to help other forum members. It is intended for posts by non-businesses. It is intended that this list will enable fellow forum members to help each other for FREE..... I say free, but really it would be rude not to provide a few beers for their trouble. Also the idea is to get you to buy Vagcom / VCDS yourself once you have experienced what it can do.
Anyone looking for help here please check that the person you are talking to is not a business otherwise it will cost you more than a case of beer!
Anyone looking for help, please DO NOT post questions in this thread, start your own thread or send a message.
RIGHT THEN FREAKS.... I've added an index per page. I've not listed any one post wonders and I've also identified "trade" members. If any of you find any dead posts and don't get a response from the member listed, send me a message and I will remove them from the index.
