    and if your a tight git and you have the printer attached,till rolls will work,use about 10 feet and wrap around the printers roller,note the text is small to read,strong glasses maybe needed.

    Ya that happened to my Beetle. I would just use the cigarette lighter adapter with a jumper pack or just leave the ac adapter plugged in. I was able to reset my throttle body and get the beetle running but it was difficult to navigate the factory settings without knowing what is what.

    Trying to update mine at the moment and keep getting this message and it won't update:

    'certain program download failed, please try to select only this and download.'

    Has anybody experienced this?
