i got this one (came today)

VAG 405 MaxiScan CAR DIAGNOSTIC CAN VW/AUDI/SEAT/SKODA on eBay (end time 10-Jan-11 23:00:40 GMT)

works fine on my A3 and my mates ibiza

Thanks for the info' fella.

How are you getting on with it?

 

[jay1601]

used it for the first time found 3 found which I didn't even know it had anyone. Cleared them, and they came back, so looks like I'm going to replace the engine temp sensor

I think its a good piece of kit for the price, works fine on my A3, very easy to use.

I would personally recommend it.
