Second that - I've seen literally hundreds of posts from people who have bought a cheap eBay look alike and then got really frustrated at it's limitations (either drivers that don't install reliably or limited functionality due to only working with a very old version of VAG-COM).

Get the real thing and be sure of being able to do what you want to without getting stressed out.

I got a cheap one from gendan and then decided to buy the 'proper' one from Ross Tech in the US. Saved a few quid by buying direct - the dongle was broken as someone had stepped on the package (you could see the footprint!) - quick email to Ross Tech and they wizzed a new one across to me asap!!

Top company and top customer service!
