Help with VCDS

Post by cwac »

Can anyone help.
Im pretty new to all this tech chat, looking to add a bluetooth module to my RCD510 unit. Seen a few posts talking about coding VCDS once the module is in place.
What equipment do i need for this?
easy to do my self or something i would need to take to the garage for?
Cheers

There is another thread I replied to today where this was asked, I got mine via eBay from a company in Poland, it was the cheapest new kit (cheaper than most of the U.K. Sellers selling second hand kits)
