Default Wanted: Full VCDS

Hi guys,

I'm getting annoyed with my old fleabay dongle and would like to upgrade to the proper VCDS/VAG-COM dongle.

I just wanted to check what people generally went for... the 'Micro Can USB' or the 'Hex USB CAN' ?

I was thinking of ordering it from here...

If anyone knows of a 2nd hand one that they're thinking of selling, that would also be an option...

Thanks,

Oli

Received my VCDS cable and box - it works a treat.

A bit uneventful but i didn't have a single fault....somehow i expected to be able to fix 'something' but all seems to be running perfectly!
