Default Pro-diag vs. VAG-COM. Why pick one over the other.
I'm looking to get some type of diagnostic tool and trying to figure out if one is much more functional than the other. I don't have a laptop or a PDA so I would need to buy something in either case. I know the PDA + Pro-Diag would be cheaper than Laptop + VAG-COM but is there anything else I should look at regarding the two programs?
