Hi all

I am looking at buying a tool which can help me clone DSG - mainly DQ200 (will also need MQB support) - as I occasionally get cars which come in with broken mechatronics

Which tool should I be looking at? Searching for this topic usually turns up Chinese "Mini DSG reader" and "KTM flash" (which I understand is a clone of the pcmflash)

Does clone KTAG support DSG eeprom read/write?

I have an old Kess v2 fully reworked clone with me - I suppose this is useless for this job?

Someone suggested original PCM flash - any opinions on this?

All your help is greatly appreciated.

If you can buy the original PCMflash, the problem is solved. according to also comment the Chinese clone works well.
There are other tools but also their prices are high. If you want to do a professional job, you have to invest in a good tool.

ktag equal if clone or ori, but not possible...
kess eqaul if clone or ori, but not possible...
pcmflash good, and it works like a charme...

Thank you for inputs achaccha & figani - much appreciated. From what I can understand, pcmflash is software only and needs a J2534 passthru device to work right? Will any passthru device work with it? I have a Allscanner VXDIAG with a passthru licence and was wondering if it can work with that tool.
