    You need an OBD eleven to enable it using that and it isnt perfect by a long way as in my area it still shows 70kph areas that havent been there for years.

    If i go up and turn left it says 60 yet drive down from further up it says 70. also on the local highway which is all 100 in one place where there is an on ramp ,it changes to 70 till you pass it. Our maps are not fully coded as are Euro versions

    If thats all you want to do ask on the appropriate forum here for someone in your area to do it for a few beers as a new one is probably $180 or so

    New to the world of VAG (have a Cupra Leon = Mk8 Golf) and still learning about the electronics.

    What doees the OBD Eleven do that Carista doesn't ? Or are they the same thing from different companies ?

    Well havent ever had a Carista but would say that the other is more useful and can do a lot more than just diagnostics Eg I did 36 mods to my Tiguan most of which a Carista would have had no idea about. Go here and look OBDeleven You need a PRO licence for it to work well and unfortunately since 2020 VAG have made it harder for us to modify some things EG cant disable S/S electronically anymore Here is a list of most of what i managed to do

    Carista can do a good deal of those coding mods as i used it in my Mk7 GTI to do quite a few of the same mods, as well as on a 2019 Skoda Octy RS. Must admit that I never tried some of those mods though as I either did not know about them / wasnt interested in them / or they were not relevant to my model.

    I must admit that I dont think I have used Carista on anything newer than my brothers Skoda Octy RS 2019 model. But next time my wife rents a VW/Skoda ill plug the Carista in and see what it will let me change.

    But yes OBDEleven is a more powerful tool than Carista, which is justified in the price difference.

    But I still maintain that Carista can do basically everything that the average enthusiast would want or need. And they keep improving functionality in each update.

    The dark horse here is carscanner pro - I think I paid $10 for the pro version. Highly functional data monitoring, coding (both one-click style and long coding), service functions etc.

    It's not visually glamourous but is extremely functional. Coupled with a device like the Veepeak BLE+ for circa $55, it represents great value for money.
