What sort of damage to the hip pocket are we talking?
I have a genuine $500 Ross Tech but I'm questioning it has nothing on what you have purchased.

VCDS is the go-to tool for 90% of what I need to do.
There are some other tools however which can do things which VCDS doesn't such as module parametization, software flashing of modules and ECUs, and VIM.
It depends which additional modules you purchase as to how much it ends up costing, but like with most of these things if you don't have a use for it then probably not worthwhile to have it sitting in a drawer.

I have a VCDS and an OBDeleven too. they all have their advantages, but VCDS and VCP are the most complex and involved, but also do so much more.
check out the VCDS tutorials, its really quote easy to use once you play with it.
just remember to scan the car and save a copy of everything before you make any changes. this is for every car you touch

Old thread but the only one I can find that talks about the VCP.I am trying to get my Skoda Superb Mk3 to allow me to close the tailgate by pressing the console button. It is not possible with VCDS or ODBeleven. Small number of posts I have found indicate need a VCP but I would prefer not to have to buy one myself (incase it doesn't actually work!)Anyone know of anyone or workshops in Sydney who does work with one?
