Which Vag Com Cable With Full License

[MatT6]

Hi all, I have a fully paid for license for vag-com which I purchased many years ago when I had an MK3 Golf. I also had a genuine cable but I have moved house twice since then so fear it has been lost.

Which cable would you all recommend to work with my '17 T6? I am talking aftermarket here. I see some on amazon but there's so many.

Thanks

It's the cable that holds the licence, not the software. I wouldn't trust a dodgy amazon cable, there was someone on here who had trouble recently and ended up buying a genuine cable to sort out the coding issues caused by the hooky one

VCDS software is free.

It's the cable (hardware dongle) you pay for.

This is the lisence I purchased. As I say it was many years ago. Pre 2005 cars! God I'm so old.

I'm going to assume whatever you have there is too old to run on newer Van's... that link references pre 2005?

Yep, I was just clearing up the comment I made re 'purchased a full lisence'. I am aware I have to purchase a cable for my van.
