Re: Diagnostics
Those will be two different tools. For diagnostic look at
https://www.hexdiagnostics.co.za/products/vcds-vag-com
to do speedos is a different set of tools altogether and it would be much cheaper to get somebody to do it for you if it is a once off.
Contact this gent - he has the tools trevor greene - 0833095033.

Re: Diagnostics
The genuine one or fong kong. And are you saying it won't connect to just the cluster or any of the other modules?

Fong kong cables are hit and miss and even with genuine software, will give you limited access.

Re: Diagnostics
Usually 1 of 2 reasons. He changed a cluster and want to put the correct distance on , or he is selling the car and the current km's looks a little high so giving it a little trim off the top.

Re: Diagnostics
It was on 278232 and reverted to 262183 so I want it to go back to 278232 as it is the correct km
Re: Diagnostics
They say it must be updated on the VAS machine in Germany, it was some sort of electrical short that caused it.
