I've recently purachsed this cable... VAG-COM USB KKL OBD 2 Cable VAG.COM interface AUDI / VW on eBay, also, Diagnostic Tools Equipment, Garage Equipment Tools, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 20-Jan-08 19:41:46 GMT)

Does anyone know if this will be able to read the fault codes on my mates 03 plate wrx, if so what software is available for free to download as i'm only looking to see why his management light is on

Thanks

 

anyone?

 

IIRC it's the same one (VAG) as I use on my 05 (and mate's 06 spec C) and it'll do all the date logging/ECU reset/fault codes etc..

What it won't do is re flash (remap) the ECU, which from what you've posted, you're not after anyhow..

What software are you using BTW..?

 

thats what i was asking as well mate, whats the best free software to use on the Impreza? I only want to read the fault codes on it...

 

up..

 

Try ECU Explorer , thats what I use and it's the business. Free too

sorry missed that bit..!

as above or www.Enginuity.org, although I'm not sure if they're still available to download..?

 

Unfortunately the Enginuity site has been down for a while. You can also try the demo version of ecuEdit ecuEdit :: Index

 

thanks lads, much appreciated. i shall give it a go and see if it connects!

 

Yeah, site is still down.

Do a search on NASIOC, couple of guys are hosting the file.
