alexVAG Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Hellow, I have a FTDI-based USB OBD2 cable, which I bought to use with BMW INPA software and my MINI R56. It works brilliantly with the BMW software, but I am wondering whether it would work with your program and VAG cars. We have an Audi A5 and a VW Beetle 2012, in addition to the MINI. I would expect that since all cars are 2007+ models, should be fully OBD2 compatible. Will this cable work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexVAG Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 It is a so-called K+DCAN cable exactly like the one here: I opened it once and had a look inside: it has a FTDI chip for USB2Serial conversion and an ATMEL ATmega162 8-bit microprocessor (plus another ATMEL chip but dont remember it exacly). All BMW EDIABAS-based software works with the cable, including diagnostics, coding and programming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
