    Vag Com Lead

    Has anyone got a VagCom lead for their car? I need to recode my RNS-E, and live in Scotland. And there seems to be nobody local who can do this or has a lead.

    I can't really afford a ross tech lead, but I have seen this company called 'talk to my car' who do one for £60. I have e mailed them and they say it will give you full functionality, but I am a bit dubious.

    Has anyone had any dealings with them?

    I'm also very interested in these cables, with or without software. I take it they're not genuine Ross-tech ones? Do they come from a reliable source?

    Fraser,

    Not for a Canbus lead, which you need for an A3!
