I own a 2001 Passat, November 2011 the display on the dash read out: STOP... ABS FAILURE! This freaked out my wife so we took it in to the dealer and they looked into it. They reset the fault and wiggled a few connectors to the tune of $150.00. The scan alone was the first $100.00. My assumption is that they already knew what the problem was before they even plugged it in as the new part alone through them was $900.00. The rebuilder I sent my part to charged $125.00 to rebuild my original with heavier duty components. After I installed it I mentioned the problem to a buddy who owns a repair shop, he offered me his code reader to reset the fault that reoccurred when I had come home from the dealer visit.

I own a 2001 beetle 1.8t, a 2002 jetta 1.8t and a 2001 Audi A4 1.8t which is basically the same car different packages. When the service light came on and couldn't figure what the problems was with the regular obd2 reader it frustrated me but since I used this vagcom obd2 reader I have been able to find and fix the exactly place and sensors that trip the service light with ease I like it worth every penny.

i am an owner of a vw passat b6, and this device has helped me to diagnose my engines problems and read the errors am having, so i just had to fix the problem without having to pay for extra $$ to diagnose, very helpful if you are planning to own a vw car for a long period of time.
