Software for coding tow bar on t6.1

[Bunty]

Hi all,
I have a t6.1 2021 dsg and it does not have trailer prep . I’m buying a wedtfailia tow bar and electrics kit and would like to know the cheapest software kit to buy for me to plug in an activate the tow bar / be able to read codes etc in the future with the van.
I have an iPad , and cheap lap to too to hopefully use with it.
Thank you!

and upgraded it to unlimited VINs afterwards.

Hi Robert,
That looks good - is it fairly easy to use ?

 

[Robert]

Yes, it is easy.
Have a look below.

And before you change anything save your AUTOSCAN and all of your adaptations.

Great thank you , looks like the one to go for !

Same unit I have, it’s the best/most complete unit for diagnosing and tweaking but obviously comes with a price tag
There’s a few cheaper options but they all have some form of limitation in functionality or compatibility somewhere
