I’ve bought and sold a couple of VCDS cables in the past and I’ve used OBDELEVEN (which was a bit rubbish at the time. Might be better now).

VCDS is really expensive and is VIN locked. Any Audi owners on here used OBDELEVEN PRO or Carly and/or anything else?

Also anyone used anyone to remote code carplay activation?

Not yet. I'm collecting it on Saturday. Got myself the nearest private plate to my existing one that I could get on DLVA select registrations and a black TTS badge for the boot to match the rest.

Put my enquiry into Royal Steering wheels for an Alcantara retrim with yellow stitching and a matching Gearshift boot as well. The rest can wait but I do want Carplay and I know it can be activated using a firmware update.

I am doing the same thing using this guy for it. Seems to be well regarded amongst the VAG guys.

Work has started on mine already lol. What’s hiding under the covers?

Will we do a joint build thread? 🙂
Not a bad idea, let me know what Jack quotes you for the steering wheel. On the plate front, i am likely to run my denso plate as it is not on a car at the moment.

He’s normally £200 including postage. I’ll stick a thread up for us on Saturday if you’ve not kicked one off first. 👍🏻

@Denso he's come back to me this morning. £200 + the usual £250 deposit for exchange. He's quoting £45 for the gear gaiter to match but they don't have so I'd need to send mine away to template.

I got one off aliexpress, £20 something pounds and it works fine.

Your car may be too new for what I ordered though, think it was up to 2017.

The link to it doesn’t work now but the description was;
2021 Popolar HEX V2 Obd2 Scanner VAGCOM 21.3.0 VAG COM 20.12 FOR VW AUDI Skoda Seat ATMEGA162+16V8+FT232RQ

Mine is 2015. So that would be ideal (y)

Something like this should hopefully do the trick then 👍

You just have to ensure the Laptop you use is not connected to the internet when using the cable/software.
