cayuga tomorrow…
Maybe… I’ll see tomorrow.
Didn’t you say in the other thread you lost your cable though?
yes. Just saying…cayuga tomorrow
Finally…success. The cable arrived earlier this week but it was sent as registered mail so I had to pick it up at the post office. Did it earlier and was surprised to open the package to see a cable that has a plastic shell that says “Genuine Ross-Tech” or something like that. LOL.
In any case, it worked perfectly with the 10.6 software.
if it says it in plastic well it must be true!
good to see it got working. 10.6 is great. My computer makes me change the date to Jan 1 2011 to use it though, other wise ross tech tries over and over to get me to upgrade. Of course then you download their software and fry your cable …so don’t!
Does anyone know if I can run a virtual 32 bit windows to use this software? or has anyone ever done a dual boot and used the 32 bit on their car and 64 for other stuff?
Come to think of it, I didn’t have the system date at 1/1/2011 and used the 10.6 version. I did turn my wireless off though. 32-bit Windows 7 Home.

I didn’t change the date with their downloaded unregistered 10.6 version and it works fine.
VCDS says mine is Genuine ROSS-TECH. But its from Hong Kong.
So i picked up spare older laptop, toshiba sateliite using vista 32 bit i was able to install and run the software with no problems big thanks to the step by step from you fellas, and played around looking through windows, cleared my codes but when i ran the initial test it says can not ready, what does that mean?
Port status ok
Interface found
Type- ross tech hex-usb+can
Version 1.84

Can Not ready
And where can i learn more about how to use this? Do i just have to keep playing with it?

That’s what mine says too
older cars are K-line early, may be partly responsible
did you mean k line only?
So is one of these the cable to buy for a B6 S4?

dunno…someone else may have the info
I have 2 extra cables in case anyone wants to buy one. I lost mine at a friend’s house…then bought one to replace it…then accidentally duplicated that…then duplicated it again with a double order…then sold one to Axel…then had my original one returned to me when the friend found it. So now I have 3 cables.
I forgot about this. Can I buy one off you?
sure thing. Next dragstrip day or something?
Sounds good.
Is anyone still selling these cables? I need one.
Anyone know the link to the one we need now? Ecutool.com has like thirty vag tools but they all seem to be odometer fixers.
Quoting this because I think it has the answer you are looking for. Or, just email or live chat with them and you might get what you need. FYI, the 2nd cable I bought from them says Ross-Tech on it. LOL.
