Mercedes-Benz Vito, manufactured in 2012

Hello, is it possible to read a Vito using VCDS-Plus? With Autoscan, the system detects an error in the engine electronics and then stops.

Greetings.

Why don't you post the Autoscan?

It's possible that the Mercedes Vito uses shared control units with the VW LT/Sprinter (or at least a similar diagnostic protocol), and these might be accessible.

Best regards, Rainer.

Probably not; even with the LT, it was known that it used various control units from Mercedes, meaning that, for example, the airbag control unit could not be accessed using VCDS.

The LT incorporates many components from Mercedes, while the Sprinter does not contain any parts from Volkswagen.

While the various versions are still supported by VCDS, only the engine control unit and immobilizer can be accessed with VCDS on older LT models, while all control units can be accessed with VCDS on newer Crafter models.

The Crafter uses different control unit addresses than is typical for Volkswagen. Has anyone tried to connect the current Sprinter using VCDS yet?

Best regards, Rainer.
