    VCDS Lite, Xenon adjustment

    If there is a problem with the lights you need to fix that before you can adjust them, neither VCDS nor the factory tool will help you to avoid that. Both VCDS and VCDS-Lite should be able to perform the necessary steps for a proper adjustment.

    Address 47: Sound System Cannot be reached

    Please update to a current version of VCDS, then post a complete Auto-Scan using either Release 10.6.4 or Beta 11.3.0. As usual updated are free, so there is no excuse for running outdated versions. ;) Ross-Tech: VAG-COM: Current Beta

    VCDS Login codes

    Again, there is no login for the stuff you are looking for. Just because the login function is there doesn't mean it is actually used, especially not for random modifications like you are looking for. If a login is necessary VCDS will usually tell you and the proper login will show once you...

    VCDS Login codes

    Audi never intended the use of HIDs which are technically illegal as you probably know, so they have not included a setting like you want it in the control module software. No login is going to change this.

    Vag Coding?

    Yep, VAG-COM (now called VCDS) will do that via it's long coding assist.

    Air bag light

    US Clusters usually lack the ability to have flexible service intervals and some other features, so they are unlikely to be an option. Not sure if it was really necessary to bring this topic back from the dead. ;)

    Enable TPMS on a 59 plate A3

    The version of VCDS your are using is no longer supported, the update to the latest version is free and can be obtained from our website. Once you've installed the new version post a fresh Auto-Scan from the vehicle. Ross-Tech: VAG-COM: Downloads: Current Release and Manual

    Why wont VCDS start!

    VCDS does NOT write anything into the registry at this point, the only thing that adds stuff is the installer/uninstaller. Therefor removing registry entries has no effect at all on how and if the program will run. Also installing an old version does not fix the problem, it is a workaround at...

    Vag Com 409.1

    At the time this topic was created VAG-COM 409 had already reached it's "End of Life" status. It had been replaced by VCDS-lite. After all Bruce is totally correct that in combination with 3rd party hardware neither VAG-COM 409 nor VCDS-lite do support diagnostics via CAN. In fact the entire CAN...

    Weird???

    Mind providing some more details about the car and posting an Auto-Scan?

    Not really I guess. But feel free to post if it comes up again...

    Is it normal for a VCDS scan to take this long?

    The proper address for that would be Sales@Ross-Tech.com then, but I don't want to make a fuzz here. Thing is that each of us has enough on the plate so it helps us getting things sorted if you use the addresses designed for such inquiries unless told otherwise. Thanks for your understanding. :)

    what these codes mean ?

    The HID problem would not effect a B6 A4, therefor it can't be the cause. But to be able to answer questions like that one would need to know that the above codes did actually belong to such a car, which the original posted hadn't posted... ;)

    Help with error that isn't on the Ross-Tech wiki!

    Feel free to post a complete scan from the vehicle in question, once you have I'll be happy to add that code to our WIKI.

    Is it normal for a VCDS scan to take this long?

    In addition we have seen that users of old versions often confuse the Auto-Scan with the Control Module Finder functionality. The first is what really does scan for codes and only scans the modules that it believes are installed in the car chosen by the user. The latter though will indeed run...
