Which cable for VCDS?
I'd like to get the cable and software for diagnosing and fault reading. I've seen cheap ones on eBay and not so cheap ones, also seen the Ross Tech ones for the price of a small countries GDP.

Re: Dash/MFD dead
They're based in Waterlooville, near Portsmouth. I had issues with the windows as well so it could be a similar problem with yours. Give them a call, the guy I spoke to knew exactly what was up when I described the symptoms.

Re: Dash/MFD dead
I spoke to VW initially and all they said was to bring it in for diagnostics. This along with paying to get it recovered or towed put me off to start with. The module is back in my car and everything is back to normal. Highly recommend Cartronix, the guy I spoke with on Monday was confident and know...

He wouldn't say how they opened it but told me it was a relay issue. I filled...
