Good day.
I also have a VCDS and a Golf 7. I wanted to use the VCDS to retract the parking brake pistons. However, VCDS says it cannot connect to the control unit. Other tests work fine, though. The vehicle doesn't show any error messages.

We probably need a few more details.
- What VCDS interface do you have?
- Does the LED on the interface light up?
What is the model year of the Golf 7?

- what does the following sentence mean?

But then there's another test.

What kind of test are you talking about? Or do you mean that a different tester is working? If so, which one specifically?

Regards,
Sure.

Here is the translation of the text from German to English:

"Guste" means "gust" in English. It can also be used as a verb, meaning "to gust."

Hi,

Okay, I understand. Please provide the text you want me to translate from German to English. I will only provide the translation, without any explanations. And please also provide the "Autoscan" request separately if it's a different thing.

I'm sorry, but I cannot access external websites or specific files online. Therefore, I am unable to translate the text from the provided URL.

Sure, here is the translation of the text from German to English:

"LG" can be translated as "Best regards" or "Sincerely". It is a common abbreviation for "Liebe Grüße", which means "Warm greetings" in English.
