Good man.

[jp-berwick]

Cool, figured someone would like a spec lookup or something

[jp-berwick]

1 done!

[jp-berwick]

And a thank you to boot! Makes it all worth while. You know what makes me laugh, R/S4 owners rattling in zillions of numbers in-to build sites instead of getting paid ££ working when for £7 erwin can do it, sorry but it's funny!

Can you post an exploded diagram of the steering column please? I had a joint replaced under warranty due to play and have been wondering if there is only one or more.

[jp-berwick]

I don't think it's what it is for? I can get diagnostics using VAS, workshopmanuals (inc steering) and product info.

iirc, years ago when did IT at a VAG dealer was it no ETKA for that?


edit I'll give this a whirl at some point have got a few J2534 interfaces:

The Offboard Diagnostic Information System diagnostic software is the first programme to support an SAE J2534-compliant interface (diagnostic interface). This software allows you to diagnose all Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda, SEAT, Bentley and Lamborghini-brand vehicles.

Furthermore, when performing diagnostic work on vehicles, you have access to the following information:

Vehicle data
Workshop manuals
Current flow diagrams
Field measures
Technical product information
This information is only available within the diagnostic software while a diagnostic session is ongoing

My confusion.

[marc1]

Is the programme called Elsawin or something like that that you need Graham?

[jp-berwick]

iic elsawin and etka were for workshop/spares unless they've been made amalgamated.
