Default VAG-COM wont recognize interface

Recently, I've tried connecting my computer to the car via my cable and the latest VAG software (this is a 2003 A4 3.0). for some reason, though the software says "port status: ok" it also says "interface: not found!" and i can't connect to the car. i know the com port on the computer is correct, as i use it succesfully with other things. this setup has worked in the past, but no longer works for some reason. my guess is it must be a faulty interface (i got it from a company other than ross-tech, whose name i can't remember). any ideas? thanks

Please define "latest version" with a specific version number. Which interface (type/name/vendor)?

Default Mine is doing the same thing. I got mine from obdtool.com

I still haven't figured out what's wrong yet.

Default The correct version for interfaces like that is 311.2.

Default Did you read the release notes on 504.1?! You didn't.

Release 504 MUST be used with a HEX or KEY Series "high-tech" Interface.

It does NOT work with any third-party interfaces or some of our older "low-tech" interfaces.

Default I'm amazed at the nerve of some people...

who won't buy the right hardware, then expect the software to work...

RTFM!
