OBDeleven OBD2 Diagnostic Bluetooth car scan Tool, Code reader for Audi Seat Cupra Skoda Volkswagen BMW Mini

Compared to VCDS, OBDeleven is generally more user-friendly and mobile app-based, making it great for DIYers and enthusiasts. While VCDS is often seen as more professional with superior live data graphing and a slightly broader feature set, OBDeleven’s Pro Plan offers a cost-effective and convenient alternative for those who want comprehensive diagnostics and coding on their phone. OBDeleven also features One Click Apps for easy modifications, whereas VCDS is more traditional and laptop-based. One click apps you do have to pay for though. I personally recommend long coding.The OBDeleven Pro Plan subscription (around €60 per year) strikes a good balance between price and functionality, particularly for individuals working on their own VAG vehicles. It provides a compact, easy-to-use solution with robust diagnostic depth, making it a solid choice for both hobbyists and some professional users who don’t require the full complexity of VCDS.In short, OBDeleven with the Pro Plan is an excellent, versatile tool for Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT, and Škoda owners wanting advanced diagnostic and coding capabilities in a portable, app-based format — with a favourable price compared to traditional systems like VCDS.I do like how its not limited to a certain number of vins too!

When I first got this the pro version did not activate, but customer support resolved that for me straight away, and have to say great product and it does exactly what I needed it to do and more

Complete waste of money for new generation of cars you need to authenticate with codes to unlock which never work spent a lot of money to find the app is just as locked up as the car tried for hours to got authentication code it never works with out that you can’t do anything with it absolutely useless device

For those who don't want to read loads this is a great tool for those who don't want to spend £££ on VCDS from Ross-Tech which is aimed at the high level / pro guys who do this for a living. This tool is aimed at the at home DIYers and car enthusiasts who plan on coding more than their own car! I have coded 4 cars now without issue! - I gave it 4 stars due to it not being able to read two modules on my car. (Photo attached). It is really a 5 star but due to this I have to give it 4.The inbuilt to called 'apps' are a gimmick imho they are one touch activations for people who don't know anything about coding. This tool is more than that and aimed at those who have the long coding to hand.I used 1 app on my friends Octavia to activate sign recognition. Worked fine and was quicker than doing the manual long coding found on the forums. I also used this to code 3 Fabias, activating multiple hidden features via the Long Coding feature of this device. All working perfectly fine, its also allowed me to retrofit certain things and activate them using the adaptations part of the app.There is so much you can do on this if you are willing to do the research into how to do things and not rely on the apps inbuilt.A lot of reviews stating apps don't work etc are those who just wanted a quick fix without actually learning about how to activate and diagnose why there are issues if they arise. For example, my Fabia has an App to turn on open windows with the key. 10 credits to activate. This is a feature for cars with all 4 electric windows with comfort opening which is rare, as 99% of these cars only have front electric windows... this app wouldn't do anything but change coding without any results and it also doesn't mention the requirements for it to work. That I understand is annoying and why people would give a bad review but its also on them for not looking to see if its ACTUALLY doable.Overall I am very happy with this device and has allowed me to code many features via Long Coding without issue, make backups of modules and retrofit items that required coding to finalise the install. For the money its great and when used CORRECTLTY its perfect. But for those just want to access the apps. Save your money and get a local garage with VCDS to do the coding for you for a small fee.

This is vastly superior to a OBD2 connector I had purchased 10 years ago.(The previous one would not work on VAG cars post 2018 even though I bought the software recently).As well as being able to fault diagnose, it is possible to carry out routine servicing procedures such as priming the fuel filter, winding back the electronic brakes when changing rear pads,etc. It is also possible to tweak lights , wiper's and dash etc. I am also looking forward to disabling the auto stop/start permanently.The manufacturers are very responsive to questions.
