What's the Difference Between (Total Car Diagnostics VAG-COM 2017 ) — and Original (Ross-Tech VAG-COM)?...
Firstly, this is NOT the original RossTech VAG-COM kit as sold for $600+ on their website... (Even though we encourage you to get the original on their website right now or eventually... if you're truly serious, caring mechanic who deals with customer cars. But if you won't do that for whatever reason, then keep reading...)
Our version of VAG-COM cable uses a 3rd Party manufactured chip. That's why we can keep costs down — because we're not using Ross-Tech™ OEM chip — but 3rd party chip using identical firmware code.
In short, this cuts down our OEM licensing fees... hence we pass those savings onto YOU.
So to clarify... Total Car Diagnostics VAGCOM 2017 cable gives you identical capability of what original VAG-COM $600+ kit can do.
It also comes with original, genuine and license-activated RossTech VCDS 12.12.0 software. (Software is NOT cracked or modified in any way. It's original software.)
** CAUTION: This is NOT one of those cheap $19 VAG-COM KKL 409.1 (or) 12.12.1/2/3 (or) VCDS-Lite VAGCOM cables that you can find on eBay/Google/AliExpress — with limited functions and cracked software. **
To summarize: This VAG-COM 2017 cable and software is the exact same product in terms of functionality and features when compared side-by-side to original RossTech VAG-COM $600+ kit. You're about to own it at a fraction of the cost. Also our VAGCOM works on unlimited VIN / vehicles - and on unlimited computers. So no restrictions of any kind.
Disclaimer: We are not associated to RossTech company. All technical help for this product must go to Total Car Diagnostics, and not Ross-Tech. And we hope you'll see how good our cable is that you'll eventually buy original Ross-Tech, because they absolutely deserve it and are always up to date.
