Hi Ayman, Thank you for the message. I have to honest with you. I have only experience with Autel Ultra diagnostic scanner. On this tablet I have done many data backup for coding on bmw, audi, and Mercedes. They work pretty well. I believe ms808 has same functionality. It’s good idea to check with Autel dealer or website before buying it.
Thank you

Hi, why do you backup the codes? Why not just replace the clockspring and then wipe the errors? I’m not a car person so I don’t understand
Cheers

Hello With which program can the cruise control be activated for the passat b8 trendline? I think vcds is not enough for this job
