VAG-COM for B7 A4

The wife’s car needs a trans fluid change and a few DIYs I found call for you to monitor trans fluid temp while refilling. Anyone have VAG-COM so I can hook it up and take a peek. Do I just need a cable to use with my laptop (and use free software downloaded online), or will I need to borrow the whole laptop setup from someone?

I live in Lancaster, work in the city, can meet you anywhere after 5 on weekdays and anytime on a weekend.

LMK! Thanks, Norb.

I have the hand held you can borrow for this

Do you need VAG-COM because it’s your wife’s car?

Just monitor external case temp with an IR temp gun. As long as it’s just warm and not scorching hot you’re golden. This is how we usually did it at the dealer. Done dozens like this.

VW specific or a Snap On or whatever style? My little MAC scanner didn’t have the capability to see trans temps.

Well I get my dick sucked silly either way, so I could care less what they call it

Will the case heat up equally with the fluid? Also, what case temps are we shooting for? From what I read, I was looking for between 32 and 40C.

Sexted you bro.

Sorry, some part of me took over and I couldn’t resist.:lolham:

Actual vag- com

I have a obd-2 cable to USB if you have your own software. That’s all I can offer.

Bumping this. Have a vw with a SES light on from a misfire. Can’t get it off and want to see if anything else is wrong. Misfire is gone.

Try texting BadnewsMike, can’t remember if he has it or not.

I have a Micro-Can which works with most newer VWs. What he car?

That would help, 07 rabbit.
