2.8  Vehicle Coverage

The  VAG  Scanner is specially designed to work with most 
Volkswagen and Audis sold worldwide of  1990 or newer  models.  
If  a VW / AUDI  has  a 16-pin

 OBD - II style 

Data Link Con-

nector (DTC),  the code reader will certainly work. If it has an old-
style 2x2  Data Link Connector (DTC), then it depends on whether 
there are  4 or  3 wires connecting to  the pins.   If there are  4 wires, 
each connecting a pin,  then it will work.  If there  are only  3 wires, 
leaving one pin disconnected, then it will not work.
For  VW/AUDI  with old-style 2x2 Data  Link Conneetor (DTC), 
you need  to  have  a  2x2  cabling  adapter  which  is  not  included  
in  this product package.
