  • You do not need internet access while using VCDS, however, internet access is required to update the firmware in our current generation of interfaces (HEX-NET and HEX-V2). So make sure your interface firmware is up-to-date before trying to use VCDS someplace that doesn't have internet access.

  • Connect an appropriate interface between the computer and the car.

  • Turn the car's ignition switch ON. No need to start the engine.

  • Start the VCDS program:

  • Now Play. Make sure the software can reliably access all the control modules that it should in your car. See our Application Charts. Query Fault Codes from some modules.

  • Please check frequently for updates! If you're using VCDS on a PC that's on-line, it should tell you when there's an update available, but if in doubt, check this page.
