Default Uwe, will the VAG function with the newer B6 Passat platform even though it only goes to B5?

I'd assume that an Auto-Scan should still determine all or most accessible modules on newer cars, or wouldn't it?

Thanks !!

A current version of VAG-COM has updated Auto-Scan files, that include B6 and B7, even the Q7 is in.

Default Also the B6 Passat uses CAN-Bus diagnostics and requires a HEX-COM+CAN or HEX-USB+CAN

Thanks Uwe, I thought this might be the case. I'll contact Ross-Tech via Web for the upgrade. Thx !
