Already have Ross-tech full software, need a real vag cord over the odbtool now........
How much? Need one to work with usb or pc card compatible. I have been using an odbtool cord, it works fine for b6 and b5 audi's, but would not work with my friends 06 VW GLI 2.0T. I also cannot clear the auto leveler with the xenons using my 3rd party cord on the b6...will a true ross-tech cord solve this problem?

For CAN based diagnostics, you need a "true" Ross-Tech interface. If you do have a valid license...
...see the attached link for an outright upgrade.
Fault codes can only be cleared if they are fixed, otherwise they'll come back immediately or shortly after clearing them. So if it's a B6 (pre-facelift) there should be no difference between 3rd party, if it's a B7 (facelift)there might be a difference.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ross-tech.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=Outrigh t">http://www.ross-tech.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=Outrigh t</a</li></ul>

Yes.
Xenons in a B6 A4 require second K-line.
Everything in the new GLI is on CAN.

When I go to the upgrade page I have 4 options to purchase.......
up to $250. Is the hex-usb-can interface, just the interface and not software since I already have full version software I purchased for $99?
