VCDS Support Vehicle Models List:
The following VCDS Compatibility Charts are based on Model and Chassis Type. To find the Chassis Type for your car, look at the 7th and 8th digits of the VIN number. The Chassis type will usually be found in these digits. There are exceptions.
Example (Audi A6):
VIN: WAUZZZ4F36N111022
The 7th and 8th digits are 4F for Audi A6 (4F), the 10th digit is 6 which stands for Model Year (MY) 2006. See the Model information Column for Audi to find the A6 Model. Note that the Chassis Type “4F” is listed under that model. Look horizontally across the VCDS Compatibility Chart until you find the Model Year 2006 and you can determine which interface(s) is required for that Chassis. In this particular case you will see that only the HEX+CAN series interface is compatible.
Please Note: Older VCDS versions may not support all of the model years listed. These charts are intended for the most current version of VCDS (in rare cases even Beta Versions).
Check the VCDS Compatibility Charts to get details
