Hi,

I want advice about buying a tool to retrieving the pin from Immo (dash) to program key for VAG (years 1998 - 2006)

Now I have VAG K+CAN Commander v3.6 - it's OK but I had some cars where I couldn't read the PIN (Golf IV diesel, Seat Toledo, Alhambra, .... - I do not remember dash types)

I bought Vag Tacho v5.0 - it was ok; I was satisfied; it worked on many cars ... but unexpectedly stop working (it shows an error : "Wrong seed keys.....try manual mode for VDO" and doesn't want to connect to a car where in the past it worked well). I tested on 2 cars and is the same error (I attached printscreen with the error).

Now i want to buy a tool , which can work well, without errors and to keep me longer (not 1 mounth). I think it's OK genuine Vag Tacho but , now, it's too expensive for me.

How about Vag Dash CAN or K+CAN or Dash COM ? Who worked and can tell me real things not comercial advertisement ?

I want advise not critics ; and please sorry my english, are not very good!

Did you worked with VAG Dash CAN chinese clone ? It's good or have many errors ? Can you count on it to copy / write dumps ?

Genuine VagTacho is probably the most reasonably priced tool available for Vag cars and the original is flawless.

I have the real VagTacho and haven;'t found that to be the case. The VW support is pretty good, Audi is Dicey at best. Don't plan on doing an Allroad, and many other Audis.

I shelled out the cash. And it has helped me a fair amount, but there's a lot of lacking coverage that it should work for, and I don't know why.

My locksmith friend has had the same experience

Random - any ideas why not mk5 stuff?
