VCDS-Lite
Windows-based Diagnostic Software 
for VW / Audi / Seat / Skoda
for non-dongle interfaces

We are still in the process of revising the documentation and descriptions for VCDS-Lite. Even when fully registered, it will not have all of the functions of VCDS, for that you'd need a genuine Ross-Tech dongle interface.

Some of the common differences between versions and between VCDS-Lite as Fully Registered versus Shareware:

Shareware:

Cannot do AutoScan
Won't display text for all fault codes
No Basic Settings (so no TBA, Xenon levelling, etc or checking timing on TDI's)
No Adaptation Saving (so no changing of locking/lights/horn behavior)
No Output Tests
No tech support from Ross-Tech

Limitations of VCDS-Lite compared to VCDS even if Fully Registered:

No Generic OBD-II
Won't work with CAN-Bus vehicles
Fewer fault code definitions and label files
No built-in Activation (you'll be limited to a single PC)
No Advanced Measuring Blocks
No Acceleration Measurement
