Title: error code readers
Post by: grisley on February 28, 2014, 03:34:26 PM
Hi guys error code readers which one do i use i have galaxy ghia 2003 which has,allegedly, one the registration doc Variant ASZ1.
i have just bought a hand held EOBO/OBD11 reader suitable for all cars? my question is, is this correct, as I have read that the VW version, which I believe this one is, is VAG.
Now having asked that would the reader i have be any use? or how can i adapt this to read VAG error codes.
thanks in advance, oh by the way in need this to find the problems on the parking aids back and front.

What you have there is a generic code reader, it's only suitable for reading engine fault codes, what you really need for these cars is a lead from ebay and using a laptop connect to all the cars modules, have a read through the link below.
