JohnR Posted November 5, 2006 Report Posted November 5, 2006 The default autoscan.txt file included with Vag-com 409.1 does not list any Fords (why would it ;-)). This means that an autoscan must be set to scan individual controllers, or try looking for all of them (which can take quite a while). If anyone has already edited their autoscan.txt to include Gals I'd appreciate a copy. Otherwise, I'll have to do one myself! Cheers,John Quote
Guest HairyPlateEater Posted November 5, 2006 Report Posted November 5, 2006 Does it list Sharan, wouldn't that suffice if it does? Not having the need for VAGCOM yet I don't know what it lists, but as it's the same car ......? :( Quote
El Dingo Posted November 5, 2006 Report Posted November 5, 2006 The software version I am using (311-2) includes the Sharan (7M), and that works fine.Because I have the Ford 2.3 engine, it doesn't communicate with the engine modules, but it's useful nonetheless. Quote

OK. FWIW, attached is the very latest Vag-com autoscan.txt file, with lots more cars in. I have added a line for the Ford Galaxy MK2 as the very first entry. Makes scanning a bit quicker (yes, I know that you can scroll down to find the VW Sharran or Seat Alhambra but why not have the Ford Galaxy at the top of the list!! :) JohnAutoScan.txt Quote

Saves quite a lot of time when running! John Quote
