Review on Vgate VS600 Advanced OBDII/EOBD Scanner: Car Code Reader for 1996+ US, European, and Asian OBD2 Protocol Vehicles - Live Data Diagnostic Scan Tool by Michael Clarke

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Does not perform all declared functions.

Bought a scanner to extract engine codes and turn off the airbag light in a 2011 VW Golf TDI. When trying to connect to the airbag module, I kept getting the message "CONNECTION ERROR". The instructions say to check your connections and such, but an option is if that module is not supported by the device. I was able to connect to the motor module but not to any of the other 20+ modules listed in the menu. When I called up the engine trouble codes, only one of the 9 codes displayed was a number found on the engine code chart. for Volkswagen. I was however able to reset the engine trouble codes which turned off the lights on the dash but that was it. I sent the device back.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Nothing here
