It reads every control unit on VW, Audi, SEAT and Skoda from 1996 onwards and has 9 service functions. It costs €194.95 and it's our best-selling single-make tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe jobs a modern VAG car needs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a recent Golf, Leon or Octavia, changing the rear pads is no longer a job for a spanner: the electronic parking brake has to go into workshop mode. A new battery has to be registered so the alternator charges it properly. And a TDI that does lots of town driving eventually throws up a particulate filter warning. Those are the three reasons most people buy this tool, and it handles all three.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rest of the nine: oil service and inspection reset, injector coding, steering angle, ABS bleeding, throttle adaptation and TPMS reset.

It speaks CAN-FD, used on the group's newest platforms, and TP2.0 for older models. It reads the VIN when you plug it in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere the VAWS V2.0 falls short\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt has no actuator tests; iCarsoft has those on the VAWS V3.0. It doesn't code control units either. It's a tool for diagnostics and servicing, with buttons and a 4\" screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eV2.0 or V1.0?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/icarsoft-vaws-v1-diagnostic-tool-vw-audi-seat-skoda\"\u003eVAWS V1.0\u003c\/a\u003e reads the same cars and costs €60 less, but only does oil and steering angle.
