A cheaper VCDS Alternative, OBDeleven

[Natty54]

Looking for a scan tool for your VW or Audi model? For many years your options for a viable scan tool were limited to exceptionally expensive scanners to properly access your data. Then came along some more affordable scan tool cables that were $250-$350, or cheap knock offs that were not likely to work. The OBDeleven is a great new affordable OBD scanner that allows you to perform coding, diagnostic and so much more on your Volkswagen or Audi model

In stock ready to ship!

Nice that you can scan through your phone with this... good price too.

I really like the gist of this... but.

If I have a retrofitted OBD-II port on my OBD-I car, can I fully use this dongle/app?

I don't see why not. Do other scan tools work on the car?

Haven't done the retrofit yet. I saw on s2forum.com that there's a way to adapt the 2+2 to the late style obd2 which in theory makes it easier to hook up to VCDS.

Now that this is available I'll look into it more closely.

Any idea if they will make an iPhone app?

The issue is not a software issue. It is a hardware issue. The way the iPhone's Bluetooth has been designed does not work with this unit
