vag com softwear

[cupra-neil]

Would this be the right way to go for vag com on a mk3 cupra and mk4 1.2, new to this side of things but want to get vag com?

Help with this would be great.

But of course there will be things which will never work...

Common difference between versions and between Fully Registered and Shareware.

Shareware:

Cannot do AutoScan
Won't display text for all fault codes
No Basic Settings (so no TBA, Xenon levelling, etc or checking timing on TDI's)
No Adaptation Saving (so no changing of locking/lights/horn behavior)
No Output Tests
No tech support from Ross-Tech

Limitations of 311 and 409 even if Fully Registered:

No Generic OBD-II
Won't work with CAN-Bus vehicles
Fewer fault code definitions and label files
No built-in Activation (you'll be limited to a single PC)
No Advanced Measuring Blocks
No Acceleration Measurement

...unless you settle for the real deal to begin with. If you plan on working on the new Ibiza (6J/MK5) or other models you should get the HEX+CAN right away.

I'm just waiting for the US economy to slide down a bit more before I go for a full HEX-USB+CAN cable from Ross Tech

Doubt it will get cheaper from your perspective, looks more like its becoming more expensive again since your economy is going down too.
