Can anyone buy access to erWin?

It was applied to my Feb/2012 Polo when I brought it in for something else so I imagine it covers almost all of them.

don't wanna sound like a douche but how much is it?

Op said he spent 5 euros

Prices range from 5 euros for 1 hour all the way up to 3000 euros for a year.

Its quite cool what you can glean out of that system - everything from service manuals, to Technical Service Campaigns and so on.

expensive to use, but

Sorry to revive this old thread, but I wonder about the value of Erwin...

as per my original post, I couldn't find any mention of the DSG campaign affecting me last June. I even called the dealer who said I would hear about it if it were to affect my car.

Low and behold, last week, bring in the car for an unrelated issue - and they tell me there is exactly this DSG recall that needs to be implemented.

So, done, finally.

Oh, and new clutches and vent hose. All under warranty. Car drives like it should again. For now....

PS: Do NOT ask for the the lock/unlock "chirp" to be turned on, unless you like a blaring horn announcing you have locked or unlocked the car... learned that the hard way. Reverted!
