This article will guide you how to correctly install VAG-COM 409.1 KKL USB cable on Windows and VCDS software.

CAUTION Using VAG-COM 409.1 KKL:

In our experience, we don't recommend depending on VAG-COM 409.1. Because it's functionality is extremely limited. In addition — you'll need to pay extra $97 to upgrade free VCDS-Lite software to full version. And even if you do upgrade — it can only scan vehicles made up to year 2004.

For that reason we recommend to get the complete VAG-COM 2021 cable with original, unlocked and full version of VCDS software from Ross-Tech™ — by clicking here.
