    I am looking for someone to perminately take over making the updates to this map as I don't have the time to commit to it anymore. It is very easy and doesn't take long to do. If you are interested please PM me and I can give you all the details. Thanks in advanced.

    Updated as of 2/24/13
    ================================================== ============

    To search for the nearest Vag-com type in your location for directions and contact information to the person closest to you:



    ================================================== ============

    If you are on the map please provide me with additional contact information (email or cell phone, name, and type of vag come) so I can update the map accordingly.

    For new people that want to put their location on the map please PM me with the following information and I will update the map:

    Name
    Location
    Type of Vag-com
    Alternate form of contact (email, cell phone, or both)


    ================================================== ===========

    There has been an Andriod app created for the Vagcom Locator and can be found here:

    The link to the app on Google Play is here: Vagcom Locator Andriod App

    Props to mercavius for the creation of this Android App
    ================================================== ============

    Which Vag-com can be used with my car:

    see here for a complete list:

    http://www.ross-tech.net/VCDS/downlo...lityCharts.pdf

    2 x 2 adapter works for cars pre OBD 2 years from 1990-1995
    Key-Com works for cars 1995-2003
    Micro-Can works for only mk5’s and newer i.e 2005-on. (not compatible with some Audi models)
    Hex com (now discontinued) is like the Key-Com
    Hex-Can series is compatible with all vehicles 95-on

    ================================================== ============

    please provide me with more information than this. I need at the min an alternate form of contact, otherwise you will not be added to the map. There are way to many people that are on the map that people have not been able to get a hold of because they are never on vortex.

    Thanks for your understanding

    I need more information than just that to add you to the map like an alternate form of contact either email or cell phone otherwise you will not be added. there are 2 many people on the map that dont have this and that has been one of the main complaints from people that have used this to search.

    Thanks for your understanding

    unfortunatly i will not add you to the list unless you provide me with an email or a cell phone number because too many people have complained to me that the people that they try to pm do not respond. so in order to better make sure that people will be able to get into contact with owners of a vagcom it is something that i require in order for you to be added to the map.

    thanks for your understanding,

    Matt

    Anyone know the best place to buy a vagcom capable of reading and modifying codes on a 07 MkV GTI. I want to program the lights for the euro switch. Thanks.

    From Ross tech. You can either get the micro can which will work for your car or if you want to be able to read the older cars (mk4 and below) you need to get a hex can. Here is the link:

    Any recommendations on the best place to find one under $100? Or are there even any that can modify codes for under $100?

    Thanks!
