Which cable & freeware VCDS?

[TimG]

I have a Jan 2004 registered '53' reg A3 2.0 Sport Tdi

Can someone link me/ tell me which cable I need along with which version of VCDS lite I need?

Some links would be great!

I already have VCDS lite version 1.0 & a OBD II interface cable which has always worked on all pre 2002 VAGs I have owned, but Im unfamiliar with what I need for my A3.

Contact Ross-Tech. They will advise accordingly. If your cable is genuine you could probably get a good deal on an upgrade.
