A: It is a full diagnostic tool that allows you to read and clear codes, read live data, program control units and much more on Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT and Skoda vehicles.

A: Yes, it can reset all service interval reminders including fixed and variable service displays. You can even decide how long until it comes back on
Q3: Is it easy to use?
A: Yes. All the screens have clearly labelled choices so for example if you want to read the codes from the engine, you click engine, read codes and that's it!

A: VAG-COM works perfectly with genuine USB interfaces like the HEX-USB and HEX-USB+CAN. If you want to use VAG-COM with USB, you will need to buy a genuine Ross-Tech supported USB interface
