VCDS (Vag-Com Diagnostic System) Compatibility List VCDS (VAG-COM Diagnostic System) Compatibility Which VCDS diagnostic system for which car? The following VCDS Compatibility Charts are based on Model and chassis Type. To find the chassis type for your car, look at the 7th and 8th digits of the VIN number. The chassis type will usually be found in these digits. There are exceptions. If you cannot identify the chassis type, please contact Kaufmann Automotive GmbH. Consider an example for an Audi A6. The VIN number for this particular car is: WAUZZZ4F36N111022. Note that the 7th and 8th digits are 4F. View the Model information column for Audi to find the A6 model. Note that the chassis number "4F” is listed under that model. Look horizontally across the VCDS Compatibility Chart until you find the year that the “4F” chassis began production and you can determine which interface(s) is required for that chassis. In this particular case you will see that only the HEX- USB+CAN hardware is compatible. Please Note: Older VCDS versions may not support all of the model years listed! Please use the update functionality of your VCDS system. These charts are intended for the most current version of our distribution with additional software: VCDS from Kaufmann* (VCDS-Plus). © 2008-2015 Kaufmann Automotive GmbH

  • Guide to Front Vaq E Diff Lock Lsd on Golf Gti, Autobahn, Seat Leon
    GUIDE TO FRONT VAQ E DIFF LOCK LSD ON GOLF GTI, AUTOBAHN, SEAT LEON This Guide applies to:- • Seat Leon Cupra 5F 2013- onwards • Skoda Octavia vRS 5E 2013- onwards Saloon/Estate • Volkswagen Golf 5G 2013- onwards Saloon, GTi, Autobahn The front E-Diff fitted to the Golf GTI and Seat Leon Cupra system is based on Generation 5 Haldex. It is given many names – VAQ system, Vorderachsquersperre (German for “transverse front axle locking”), Ediff or ELSD. But as complicated as this may sound it is nothing more than a Haldex type clutch pack which locks the rotation of the left wheel to the right (and thus the right to the left), it stops either front wheel spinning by locking the diff. It clamps the non gripping spinning wheel over to the non spinning wheel. There is still a normal diff in the final drive of the gearbox, then this E-diff transfer box slips into the right hand side of the gearbox where it meshes into the middle of the normal diff just like a drive shaft would, then it has another spline on the outer tube which meshes into the diffs outer housing thus the final drive (see picture below). The system simply clamps the right prop shaft output onto the outer final drive casting of the diff, thus it stops the diff from differentiating, thus acting like a controllable diff locker. The system uses the ESP/ABS module to monitor wheel speeds, then if there is demand for torque/power from the driver the ESP system watches for wheel spin by the ABS wheel speeds sensors and if there is an excessive speed from either front wheel then it locks the diff together.

    KARELIA-AMMATTIKORKEAKOULU Tietotekniikan koulutusohjelma Kari Kuninkaanniemi ROSS-TECH HEX+CAN-USB-DIAGNOSTIIKKAKAAPELI JA VCDS- OHJELMA Opinnäytetyö Toukokuu 2013 OPINNÄYTETYÖ Toukokuu 2013 Tietotekniikan koulutusohjelma Karjalankatu 3 80200 JOENSUU p. +358 50 260 6800 Tekijä Kari Kuninkaanniemi Nimeke Ross-Tech HEX+CAN-USB-diagnostiikkakaapeli ja VCDS-ohjelma Toimeksiantaja ALT-Control Oy Tiivistelmä Tarkoitus oli tutkia Ross-Techin valmistamalla HEX+CAN-USB-diagnostiikkakaapelilla ja VCDS-ohjelmalla Volkswagen-konsernin ajoneuvojen ohjausyksiköitä ja luoda näiden testausten perusteella kattava suomenkielinen ohje VCDS-ohjelmalle ja HEX+CAN-USB- kaapelille. Ajoneuvoja tutkin kytkemällä diagnostiikkakaapelin auton OBD-liittimeen ja yhdistämällä sen kannettavaan tietokoneeseen, jossa oli VCDS-ohjelma auki. Autossa tuli olla virrat päällä, ennen kuin sen toimintoja voitiin tutkia. Tavoitteena oli tehdä ohje, jonka perusteella on helpompi ymmärtää VCDS-ohjelmaa ja siihen liittyviä toimintoja. Tuloksena sanoisin, että tämä kaapeli-ohjelmayhdistelmä on erittäin kattava kokonaisuus ajoneuvon tutkimiseen VAG-ryhmän ajoneuvoille. Yhdistelmällä saa paljon tietoa ajoneuvoista, mutta se pääsee oikeuksiin vasta uudemmissa CAN-väyläisissä ajoneuvoissa. Suosittelen kaapelia yksityishenkilöille, jotka haluavat tietää enemmän omasta ajoneuvostaan ja korjaamoille vaihtoehtoisena työvälineenä kalliiden alkuperäisten laitteden rinnalle.

  • VCDS Compatibility Charts
    VCDS Compatibility Charts The following VCDS Compatibility Charts are based on Model and Chassis Type. To find the Chassis Type for your car, look at the 7th and 8th digits of the VIN number. The Chassis type will usually be found in these digits. There are exceptions. If you cannot identify the Chassis type, please contact Ross- Tech. Example (Audi A6): VIN: WAUZZZ4F36N111022 The 7th and 8th digits are 4F for Audi A6 (4F), the 10th digit is 6 which stands for Model Year (MY) 2006. See the Model information Column for Audi to find the A6 Model. Note that the Chassis Type "4F” is listed under that model. Look horizontally across the VCDS Compatibility Chart until you find the Model Year 2006 and you can determine which interface(s) is required for that Chassis. In this particular case you will see that only the HEX+CAN series interface is compatible. Please Note: Older VCDS versions may not support all of the model years listed. These charts are intended for the most current version of VCDS (in rare cases even Beta Versions).
