They are around £250 iirc, best bet is to visit the Ross tec website and find a supplier in the UK. There is one on here and there are group buys from time to time

yeah its good to turn up to a garage or dealer and tell them the problem exaclty so instead of them bumping of the price or the fault its good to know what you are talking about and they step back and say whooow this guy knows what he is on about :D

Normally the garages say that you have been on that nasty forums when you turn up and know what's wrong and how to fix it. Stops them being able to say that extra parts or labour was required

I have had a garage say that I should not have VCDS because I am not a mechanic and won't know how to use it properly :fighting:
