Yes this one does.

I remember people using this and they had alot of issues, but I think the newer ones are pretty good.

From the site

- NEW: added support for 2009 2.0 TFSI/TDI engines
- NEW: added initial support for most 1.4/1.8 TSI engines

ohh cool.. back to topic then.. who's tried one on the leon and how much are they?

 

[Glovepup]

well I was wondering the same thing, I have not seen any posts about anyone trying it yet.

 

[Xe]

You buy it, and I will try it

Very clever piece of equipment

Looks like an interesting gadget.....pity I don't have the larger MFD

For the most part it allows comfort settings to be changed if you do not have the menu / VAG-COM to hand and readings rpm / speed / boost values and displays / logs them for you. I cannot see the videos and other links, esp for the "all features" section from work

 

[Glovepup]

I am definitely considering getting this

i have been doing some research on these and VW Vortex dont like this company or its products. Seems like it throws error codes up and when trying to view boost info when driving it wont let you and states vehicle must be stationary etc.

I would stay away and spend money on something else. I was interested but after reading that i wouldnt want to be ripped off. This is my point of view and no way influences any judgement on LCT.

Don't think so, the MFD looks 'normal' just some trying to video themselves on a phone while driving...
