CAUTION:

There's several versions of VAG-COM sold online. Unfortunately 99% of them are using low-grade hardware chip with additional of cracked VCDS software (sometimes needed an awkward computer date adjustment). If you own this kind of version, know half of it's functions don't work. For that reason we recommend you get the high-quality VAG-COM 2020 cable with original, unlocked and full version of VCDS software from Ross-Tech™ — by clicking here.

When you're back in Windows, you may connect cable into computer, and go to Step 3.
