ECUTOOL.com VAG Com cables - some info

This is why I generally dont update the software. I have ran into a few bugs over the years with updates. I usually hold off for a few months each time I see an update before I will actually update

Well 10.6 is the one that I used to use back in the day when I originally got my ecutool cable. They are on 15.6 now.

10.6 just will not launch. Double click the icon and nothing happens. Tried running it in xp mode(I have win 7 pro) and vista mode. Tried 32 bit and 64 bit and still nothing. I guess I am just SOL here.

I just bought a vagcom proper cable from a site member after running into trouble with the ecutool. Vagcom was bought used, works nicely without any hassle, and won’t lose its value too much. Whereas the ECUtool cable eventually caused problems and is eventually worthless.

If you reckon a $35 cable will depreciate to $0, and a $250 used vagcom cable will probably not depreciate much at all, it’s one of those things you have to weigh.

As you probably already know its worth the money. I still would suggest not doing all the updates as they come. Your last issues seemed to be for different reasons all together

Yeah, it looks like I am just going to buy the real one now and not have to worry about it not working.

Wish I still had my legit one, I’d send it your way but I sold it a while ago.

They don’t loose much value, but it’s still a bummer when the $35 cable typically did 90% of what you need but you occasionally run into needing the legit cable for the last 10% of stuff.

Can anyone tell me whats up with this cable I’m trying to get the coding fixed from my halogen to xenon swap so I can use my high beams. I haven’t ever updated my software I still have 10.6 and 11 something.

It keeps saying Interface not found or something like that. I tried using the disc they sent but my computer keeps saying the disc is empty. I can’t seem to figure out the problem and really don’t want to buy a ross tech at the moment. I will later but was hoping I could get this working for now so I could code my high beams and do some other coding mods.

TIA
