which model lead and software do i need
will 311.2 do or do i need later?

my laptop will take serial or usb!!

and who is selling the one in the classifieds

311.2 will work with any lead, I believe, later software versions require active key or hex cables. License is $99.

I bought my usb cable on ebay for £25 and
erm, license can be free if you use a keygen.

Not sure how this will go down with the mods here, but here goes

cars are free if you steal them too.

amounts to the same thing.

$99 isn't much if you use something regularly - its basically a tank of fuel...and if you don't use it regularly, probably the shareware version is enough.

not paying for it means there'll be less money going into development for new versions.

thanks for all the help guys. will post any developments.

I have just upgraded my VAG-COM because I got a new laptop which only has USB. Although I've not used it much yet, the 500 release doesn't seem any different from the 311.2 release.

Try this company in us/Canada

easy to deal with, and I’m not on commission!!

Dippy,
Did you sell your old lead?

Any mods care to delete that keygen before I inform Ross-Tech of such things being posted here???

3rd...well I think I was first with my rant last night.

clean conscience here, as got offical vagcom usb cable

So is my HEX-CAN usb interface, and I have also been working with Ross-Tech for the last 2 years, developping new stuff, alpha and beta testing, so it really hurts me to see people using keygens and posting them on forums especially....

I'm sorry guys, i never meant to cause such offence. my intentions were to help out Buzzard.
I bought my cable from an ebay seller who sent me the software.
To be honest the ebay cable is very unstable and if i need to use it regularly i'll be buying an official vagcom

I'm unable to edit the post myself, so I have emailed the one Mod i know of.

if you know of a mod you can contact then please do.

Thanks for the email Scotty...I have removed the link above.

311.2 is ok or everything I've use it for to date on both my previous 1997 S4 and 2000 RS4.

I check and clear error codes and log boost. I can even check for misfires which some on here don't think is possible on cars built prior to Nov 2000. Well mine is Sept 2000 and I can check for missfires something I'm doing right now!
