I'm trying out ODBeleven. For $60 and if you have an Android device this seems to work well. I did the service reset and working on a list of things to change for my A6 C7.

1st;
Former owner had solder one of the proms in the computer=failure
(lot of thanx to GIAC, who found the failure there..)
2nd;
Former owner, again..! Grr.. had "fixed" the cover/fixture on/around the shifting unit at/in the transmission with liquid metal!! Seriously?? So the shifter wouldn't shift in more than drive, neutral or reverse!! ( I feel kinda stupid to not find/think of something like that)
Thank You Ryan Miles Owner, Peak Transport Inc!!
I really want to recommend the people at Peak Transport in Bend

Kudos to you and the Peak Transport team for sticking with the problem!
What kind of pond scum does that to an Audi?
Suggest the Peak team go through the standard Audi certification list on your vehicle to see what other innovations you have inherited. Better to know and work out a mitigation plan, if needed.

And yes, Peak Transport did a scan on my rig and gave me a list of issues, they even looked thru other stuff at the same time, and again, on an affordable limit!
Strange thu, they have the Ross-Tech by wire and found the transmission issue, I have the Ross-Tech WIFI but mine did not want to read the transmission at all!??
How many times I connected mine, or tried other stuff, no reading of the transmission..?
Any input on this?

Did you join our forum and post this information in the HEX-NET section where our designers and others are looking to help people? The HEX-NET should find the tranny faults just like VCDS on a wired system. Might be you found a bug we need to work out. Would you mind going to our forum and posting there so we can work it with you? Thanks.

Compatibility
I would also like to ask a few questions:
1) is there a Windows operating system requirement? Will this work with Windows 10?
2) Will this work with US Brands? (GM, Ford, etc)
3) do I need to buy any special software, adapters to support both GM and Audi?
Any other insight is greatly appreciated, I need to get one on order like yesterday.

1 - Works with Windows 10 with no issues
2 - No
3 - you just buy the cable and the s/w and firmware updates will take place, based upon the cable to work on VAG vehicles (Audi, VW, etc...)

It WILL work on pretty much anything to read/clear the "generic" OBDII codes. It won't delve into the nitty gritty stuff that the factory scan tools can on any other marque than VW/Audi/Seat/Skoda.
I've used mine on our Subaru, on a Hyundai, etc.. Generic OBDII stuff, no problem at all.
