GaragePro coverage for Volkswagen

We hold 24 control units against Volkswagen at make level, which means they apply to every Volkswagen in the lists below. A further 6 special functions are recorded for the make, and those are on Advanced only.

Coverage is recorded per make. 6 Volkswagen models additionally have rows of their own, and those are added to the make-level set for that model rather than used in place of it. Run the check with your model and year for the exact list.

Models with their own coverage rows

These Volkswagen models have rows recorded against them specifically. The counts are the make-level set with each model’s own rows merged in, which is exactly what the compatibility check returns for them.

Passat B8 24 7
Polo 24 7

A model in this table is not better covered than one that is not — it means someone has connected to that Volkswagen and recorded what answered. Everything else runs on the make-level record below.

Questions about this coverage

Will it read the airbag light?

If SRS or Airbag is in the control-unit list on this page, yes — it is read and faults on it clear, on every plan. The list above is the whole answer; nothing is held back for a higher plan.

Which plan do I need for a service reset?

Advanced. A service reset is a special function, and the special functions are Advanced-only regardless of make. Reading and clearing faults on every control unit is on every plan.

My model is not in the table above.

Then it runs on the make-level record, which is the list of control units at the top of this page. The table only names the models we have recorded rows against individually — it is not a list of what is supported.

Do I need a connector cable?

Cars use the standard 16-pin OBD-II port and need nothing extra. The extension cable is only for a port tucked behind trim where the scanner will not sit. Bikes are the exception — those need a make-specific cable, and it is on the bike product.
