I do not think that this is the quality of the soldering ross-tech. I can assume that the owner of the cable took a photo after the repair.

I don't think it has been repaired. But flux should always be washed off in any case.
They build these interfeaces in SA and probably China.

Anyways it is useful to know what the original looks like.

No.
Will not work on new cars.

And x44 is better ?

**hid3** · 16th January, 2019, 08:19 AM

There's no "better" or "worse". It's just different types. Both are equally good.

**FoxMulder** · 16th January, 2019, 09:22 AM

and both can not get the new cars?

Hello guys,

I'm back with some news around my old cable vcds (10.6.4) that i would like to update to a 18.2.0 (english) and 18.2.1 (french),

- Is the 18.2.0 VCDS a stable version or what version do you recommend me ? i would like to be able to run the 18.2.1 french version also , so do you thing that it's possible to use the 2 versions without rewriting the eeprom , please ?

- Do i have to use the loader from the 6.2 / 6.3v of kolimer or can i use the loader from the last package 7.2 v, please, what is the difference, please ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

The 1st thing, i have experienced the VCDS USB eeprom upgrade without a 12V connection , how is it possible ?

I have connected the cable to my computer's USB port and also to the USBASP programmer and in this case, no problem, the process seems working correctly as you can see in following screenshots :

How is is possible ? VCDS cable could be powered by the power delivered by 2 X usb power = 11 V or ?

After i have 2 questions :

- Is the 18.2.0 VCDS a stable version or what version do you recommend me ? i would like to be able to run the 18.2.1 french version also , so do you thing that it's possible to use the 2 versions without rewriting the eeprom , please ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

There is nothing strange in this, it means that atmega162 is powered from the port usb and the stabilizer is powered on the КL lines, flashing any version of the language you need, English will work too. 2 X usb(0,5A) power ≈ 5,5V 0.9A

Wich O.S., and wich cable?
Used on 2 kinds of cables on W7 and W10 64bit. Worked well in autoscan.
One "44" first model with RL and L9637 and one "46" HexV2.

First test is possible to give "Can NR", is an older issue. But the rest..worked well.
