Hi,

A guided troubleshooting process in conjunction with VAG-COM is currently being evaluated, essentially a feasibility study.
However, it will have nothing to do with VAG parts.
Unfortunately, I can't say much more at the moment, as this concept is currently just a trial project, and ultimately a) some people need to participate, and b) the final product also needs to be affordable.

It is clear that if things turn out as I envision, some other manufacturers will have to work very hard icon_cool.gif.

Best regards, Rainer.

If you're looking for a beta tester, I'm interested.

The problem with things like that is that you always have to put in an enormous amount of work for the documentation, not to mention where you even get all the information from.

Okay, so we're moving on, what about translation? After all, VAG-COM is available in several languages...

Currently, things are looking quite good, as the new VAG-COM versions 4xx.x offer significant improvements in terms of coding and adaptation, as these features can now be 'labeled.'

Hi, you're right. That's why, if possible, I will also rely on existing products and integrate them.

Best regards, Rainer.

Some guided functions are slowly starting to appear in VAG-COM.
When you start thinking about transportation modes...

Did you have VAS-like features in mind when considering this topic?
I can definitely see how that could be useful for specific aspects.

It always boils down to a question of effort versus benefit.
