You won't get much support unless you have a proper cable from Ross-Tech.

That is the wrong cable and software for the mk5 platform. It hasn't been referred to as VAGCOM for years and years.

Look for someone local with VCDS as it is now known.

Up to an hours labour probably, there are people with VCDS all over.

Stick up a new one or rename this thread with 'VCDS help in East London' for example and surely someone will help.
