Will ELM327 Wi-fi work with any version of VCDS?

sorry if this is known information... I've searched with no luck.

[ddillenger]

no.

No. But currently Ross-Tech is working on a mobile compliant version of VCDS which is rumored to use a proprietary wireless OBDII dongle.

Looks like they have been for a while... I'm anxious

I've tried playing around with it since I don't have an Android device at the momont (seriously missing my torque app!) and wasn't able to make it work.

I found an general OBD scan software that works, i'll check what program it was when i get home and can open up my laptop.

Great! I'm using dash command now but would like to double check the reading and also be able to make changes.

Any update on this?

ScanXL Pro 3.5, I won't point to where, but you can get find a torrent for it.

No adaptation channels tho, so no cool mods with it, but it had some nice scan and logging features.

Scanxl pro is great, I actually bought my copy, along with all the enhanced diagnostics bundles for domestics. Just generic OBD for imports though.

Hopefully not proprietary.... that is SUCH a pain in the ass. One of the things I look for in anything I buy is the flexibility/adaptability of the hardware... the less flexible, the less likely I am to buy.

Exactly!

On another note, is there any app like Torque that would work under iOS?? Even if for just logging things when paired with a wireless (bluetooth) OBDII reader.

I think Fly or operator use the wifi/iphone version, it's quite a bit more $$$ to buy the device and app as they are quite different, android and cheap chinese knock offs FTW!
