Fault code reader


Recommended Posts

Hi I hope somebody can advise please I have an A4 B9 Tdi Avant and have had a couple of minor engine faults that needed investigating and resetting and would like to purchase a simple reader that would allow me to read the faults and reset if applicable, I really do not want and cannot afford to spend a fortune for an all singing and dancing unit, could anyone please advise on a very simple unit that would work for me,thank you

I remember there used to be a tool called vw scan but a search of eBay returns nothing. 

It depends on which systems you wish to access? The cheap handheld scanners will only access emissions related codes! 

 

There's vcds on eBay although I'm unsure If that works on newer models.

I used to use one called k lite or something like that which was pretty good for vag.

 

Or this is on offer atm and give you access to everything.
