Title: Monoscan to read bin pre ME7?
Post by: rob.mwpropane on May 17, 2011, 05:28:41 PM
I have read alot, and I see that for older ecu... pre ME7, that some claim to have been able to read using monoscan. I have a ross tech cable that I tried using briefly with monoscan to no avail. Do I need a different cable? And can monoscan be used to do what I'm looking to do? I have a chipped b5 a4 that I would love to compare to a stock version, same bin, which I found on another site. Thanks in advance, I have read alot, but it seems some posts say you can read, others say only write.... hence my confusion... Thanks again.

Rob ,

Did you get around this ? Is it coz we are using the new or newish spec of ross tech cable ?

I have the same issue , even if i uncheck the itelli boot mode

Guys,

I suggest you both  google 'monoscan'.

I had success with M3.8.X ecu's with this fantasic program and a KKL dongle.

Cheers,

To tell you the truth I ditched my ideas with monoscan and playing with ME3.8.3-5.9.2 for ME7. I bought a 2001 A4 for dirt cheap. I could never get it to work, not saying that it won't. The easiest way I found was to get a programmer to read the chip, and buy MPPS clone from eBay capable of writing to the chip via OBDII. I never got around to doing either. There just wasn't enough info at the time to tune earlier vag cars (for me). I did however become quite good at soldering/desoldering;) hope that helps some.
