VAGCOM

Post by cliveyboy » Wed Oct 27, 2004 5:06 pm

Hi All,
I have just bought an S4 (B5) and have a problem - losing power at about 4,000rpm when under load.
Before I take it into the local Audi stealers, I'd like to run Vagcom up to see what's going on. I have the software (latest version), interface & cables, and laptop. I have a serial port (COM1) and try to set this in the options but it won't have it.
I have Scantool and use same hardware and settings and it works fine - any clues please?
Cheers, Clive

IIRC the latest versions of VAG-COM need the latest cable. i.e. it's not back ward compatible.

See HERE

You may simply need the older version i.e. version 311.2
B8 A4 Avant quattro
Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird
Suzuki GSXR1000 (Track bike)
B6 S4 (AMD Stage 3) - GONE
8N TT (APR/AMD/MTM) - GONE
