I did it. I paid my dues and just ordered a RossTech VCDS. Now I’m here to learn what I can. I found the 2016 Passat that I leased brand new, for sale, and I bought it. I was so upset that I had to adult and turn this car back in. We couldn’t afford two payments and needed something bigger for the family so we leased a ‘19 Atlas. So I got my baby back and she needs some TLC. I’m sure that my wife’s ‘14 Jetta is going to be happy about it as well. Thanks for the video brother!
Would love to see a series of vcds videos, a complete series would probably be unattainable I’m sure but over time you could have an amazing collection. Great video as always
I'm sitting here in the UK with my brand new VCDS package, hunting through this box of tricks like Felix the Cat. This is crucial viewing, thanks so much for the uploading this, the depth this reaches is unreal !.. Think I'll be referring to this tomorrow..
There are very few videos like this that show everything you did. Most all videos are single little functions. I would love to see more about the measuring blocks and output testing. I’ve never used the graph function but now I know how. Thank you.
I got my Ross Tech rVCDS in 2011 for my JSW TDI. I have used it many times. It may sit for a year but then I use it. Priceless!!! It paid for itself many times over.
hand brake on keeps daytime running lights off on certain countries also. I did the change to the throttle linear over time mod on a TDI.. 100% improvement. The Ross-Tech forum is handy as well. and the tech support is the best.
Videos like this are great, as the vcds experts on various pages look down on newcomers like we're nothing as we don't know as much, but they was in our position once! 🤷♂️
This is what Ross-tech noobs like me really need are vids like this ! I still have a 03 Jetta with 639,kl 1.9 TDI with a rebuild I.P. having trouble with IQ is all over the place with #2 and #4 cylinder running rich 1.42 and 1.88 The pump guy says my injectors are bad , so I swapped them out with know they are good injectors from my second car , And it helped the rough idling but still not stable on the IQ {goes from 2.8-4.8 } and # 4 is still at 1.84 m/str had enough practical for to day sat down and found this vid , back to some theory
VCDS is awesome. It almost uses itself because it's so intuitive. And the Ross tech wikis are excellent. This tool helps sort out the convoluted cluster f that is vw diagnostics.
You are my HERO for making this! I was one of (the many?) subscribers Who’d requested a “dumbed-down VCDS video. This is SO PERFECT because now I can take the elementary knowledge & apply it to your more advanced/ thorough videos on VCDS.🤓🎉😃 YAY!!! PS I finally got my Touareg back from the headliner / body shop. The former owner (May he Rest In Peace) got COVID before he could do any of the work. I may have the new guys fix her body up! Meanwhile- VCDS here I come!!
Very nice Charles. I would add that Ross-Tech has a very good customer support network. Once you register your cable you can participate in the forums and questions are usually addressed in a reasonable time frame.
Dude I’ve had my unlimited Vin vcds cable for like 3yrs and haven’t used it yet because I know I wouldn’t have a clue as to what I am doing. Please make more tutorials on VCDS! Thanks man you rock!
Recently purchased the VCDS cable so I can do DIY maintenance on my VW. What laptop would you recommend or would a windows tablet work? There are basic guidelines on RossTech however I am curious what your experience has been... Thanks. Appreciate your content too!
Great video, I envy the power of VCDS, though I'd love to see a similar video to this done on the R32 as well. As much as this is a fantastic ad for VCDS, I am not sure it's that much of an upgrade over ODBeleven for those of us with older systems, so it would be nice to see an example of that.
Vcds is so powerful and easy! I went to buy b5 audi. It had a fault code from immobilizer, car started for 1second and shut of. 5 mins googling and a first timer (me) got the car running for good with vcds!
Excellent video Charles! Would love to see more like this, in particular: 1) how to check for chain wear/stretch, 2) are their values to monitor which indicate carbon cleaning may be needed, 3) a series on frequently used sections of VCDS for troubleshooting common mk6 GTI problems. Last but not least, I'm a bit surprised that you recommend a battery tender for the battery. I'd think that the vast majority of things VCDS does would be extremely low current draw, when compared to (for example) starting the car (which is a massive drain on the battery).
More vcds vids plz! I am in the middle of purchasing my first VW- 2009 Touareg R50 - and I am trying to learn all I can on diy maintenance to save some cash.
I've been trying to find out reasoning between OBD11 and VCDS on which one to buy. As soon as you hit the Graphing portion of this tutorial I completely understood why people praise it. On top of all the logging, I think my purchase is well warranted. Thanks for the video!
Great info. I picked up a VCDS hex can cable back in 2008 or so and it still functions great. I worked late on a 2016 Touareg last night with a interior light issue and the VCDS helped out a bunch. Unfortunately the factory SI is lacking for the j519 module.
CAR DOSE The VCDS HexCan cable is no longer available I believe. Those of us that have it (myself included) are very grateful to own one. Ross Tech (VCDS) now sell other versions.
As a raw beginner with VCDS I did pick up a few things but please it's a little fast. You obviously know the tool and this may be why you move so quickly and skim over some meaning. Decaf before the next video please. Very informative!
LOL I JUST LOVE COFFEE SOOOOO MUCHHCHCHCHCHHCHCHCHCHCHCHC Good tip! Its a balance between keeping the video moving and slowing down. Maybe next video I will slow down a little and time stamp the different sections
I would definitely like to see more VCDS videos. I just bought my controller and there's a lot to learn. Your channel has been the best for teaching that's for sure. Thank you
@@JDJD-mw9rr That was the 1st thing I had done on my Touareg. Full timing belt and tensioners as well as other maintenance stuff. It was a $5k bill but I wanted to make sure it would last.
@@infidel24 ya very smart, I did the Timing belt myself and only the driver side tensioner. It took me a week, the whole front end must come apart, front of the engine, and then to get the tensioners done you have to take the cams out of the head. It's a huge job, I'm not looking forward to doing the other side lol. Has yours been reliable? So far mines been great besides the maintenance
Charles, as always, very interesting and educational videos that you share with us. Can't thank you enough. Please, please continue your tutorials on the VCDS . I 'm still a newbie with this tool and it is awesome for someone like me. Mine is an older Ross-Tech interface (KII-USB) and I use it on my 2002 Passat. We now own a 2018 Tiguan and I am wondering if I can use this older Ross-Tech (updated to 19.6.2) interface with the newer Volkswagen to diagnose problems with the same ease as I am now able to do with the Passat. If it would not do an adequate job with the newer VWs and I upgrade my interface, which one would be your choice that would do the job on both vehicles? May I suggest the following if you have time to make these tutorials: how to change the day driving lights from always on to off, how to diagnose bad engine sensors that commonly malfunction, what graphing functions in VCDS are most useful to the DIYer. Thank you.
Don't know if you'll even get this message brother, but you turned me from a DIYer to a professional VW tech in a matter of a year. BIG THANKS to you and Jalopnic, DAP and all you do. Thanks a million times over. --Griff P.S. Im going to copy and paste my comment to other videos so you'll actually see what I wrote and maybe...JUST MAYBE...Ill get a response. ONE LOVE
Naw the thing is as far as doing actual diagnostic work you need to be able to interpret the information ur looking at plus most people don’t know how to do any actual coding. All he’s doing is giving vw free advertising
I bought the Hex NET unit and for like 2-5 VINs. I use it so rarely that when I need to use it, I'm almost lost again. Grr. Getting old. Would be easier if I used it more often. Thanks for the video man! I'll be refering to it a bit more, I'm sure.
Thanks for this video, please keep them coming, I do have this scanner but I don't know how to use it very well, for example, in minute 18:19 there is a screen for Service Reminder Interval, it shows a value on row 4 on oil quality of poor oil quality, and even when I just change the oil it is still the same. So is the car actually checking the oil quality with a sensor or is that just more like a counter, for example, after so meany miles after the service it will say poor oil quality. Even when I enter the value for the next service it still reads poor oil quality. And another question is who do I now the correct values that it should read, in what publicly available manual can I found the baseline values?. Thanks Charles! congratulations on all your videos!
Super useful, thanks for this and keep them coming, been using vcds for 6 years but just basic stuff, and as you said I learnt some new stuff. Just on the SRi reset, if Ur car is UDS you will have to use adaptations in the instrument cluster module to reset the oil and inspection intervals, bit of a pain until you get used to it.
Great tool. Ross tech support is great tool. You automatically become a Forum member. You can upload your whole scan and they will make suggestions if you are having any issues. Mine paid for itself first use.
Love this video and your channel so much! Just purchased a 2010 Gti Tsi with all of the typical issues already delt with; timing chain, pcv, water pump, etc., and was interested in getting the enthusiast vcds to stay on top of my tsi and keep her as minst condition as I can for a long time. My 08 rabbit as well.
Super great video! Love to see more about what to look for in VCDS when you buy a used car. Sure it has thousands of views. One question I have... If I buy a used car and are all previous errors deleted, how can I really know the status of the car? Is there a way to "reset to default" to see the error memory history? Thanks again! Very usefull content!
This video is brilliant. Thank-you very much for sharing. I know its a little old now, but still a really great overview for a novice trying to get to grips with VCDS.
dude thank you for your ross tec vidsyour a life saver your presentations can even be understood by a dumb ass big block chevy guy like me you rock thanks again
Hello Mr. HumbleMechanic Charles ! I know this is an older video, but I just now at last got my very own VCDS !! I would very much like to see many videos on how to do this and that ! Im excited to use this the help in keeping my VW healthy! Hope you will make more videos in this subject! Thank You!!
This video helped me a great deal. Thank you! I bought a Passat SEL and rear speakers and dash tweeters don’t work. Trying to use VCDS to diagnose the issue.
Suuuuuuuper helpful! Im starting to play around with my fsi b6 passat, 2006, she's so much fun to drive, I'm trying to learn everything I can to keep her going. I used to build robots competitively and did well back then, so this is different, but much the same. Thanks again, will be looking for the next video!
Aweome, thanks for the video. I ordered a VCDS today, and am hoping to enable remote window operation on my '17 VW CC. Holding down fob button does nothing, but I've read it's supposed to, if enabled. Also hoping I don't inadvertendly enter some functionality of a bit controlling the engine or other major component, haha.
Have the latest interface. Still a great video Charles. Good tool. Wireless feature is amazing. Still have a 20ft USB cable hooked so I don't forget it. A grand is a pretty big deal.
GREAT VIDEO BROTHER!!! PLEASE keep the VCDS videos coming. I've had it a few years now but only do novice things with it. Definitely need to learn more. Love your presentation!
Dude! This is super extensive. Way above my head. Can you check things like the the PCV regulator without having to remove supercharger, to find out if bad. Would be nice. I am getting a DTC.
Great stuff, Charles. I got vcds to deal with a parking sensor module on my 07 passat. Since then, many episodes with it and today I have a 2010 touran 1.4tsi with p10a4 and p0303, so fun coming my way. Keep ya posted! 👍🏻 Well, not coil or plug so looking at injector next.....
Dude, first of all, EPIC beard. Mine isn't quite there yet, but man it's looking good too. Secondly, thank you for publishing this video. I wished i would have seen this video before purchasing a pretty expensive VW specific scan/code reset tool. I was thinking those scanner cables i keep seeing required some sort of device to go with them.
Please do more videos on VCDS! Great tool and would like to learn it myself.

Great stuff, Charles. I got vcds to deal with a parking sensor module on my 07 passat. Since then, many episodes with it and today I have a 2010 touran 1.4tsi with p10a4 and p0303, so fun coming my way.
Keep ya posted! 👍🏻
Well, not coil or plug so looking at injector next.....
thank you for all what you do ,, maybe we need more tutorial videos in adaptations and the use of long codes
Excellent video Chic, very helpful/informative and helps DIY newbies like me get to know some of the basics. Thank you 👍

Dude, first of all, EPIC beard. Mine isn't quite there yet, but man it's looking good too. Secondly, thank you for publishing this video. I wished i would have seen this video before purchasing a pretty expensive VW specific scan/code reset tool. I was thinking those scanner cables i keep seeing required some sort of device to go with them.
More details on each section. Thanks for making great videos!
