Randall send an email to John Grable at CarComp. I had the same problem as you. The real problem is your computer. Some notebooks just don't work quite correctly with the car/VWTOOL software.<p>John will instruct you how to read the codes that are being sent/received for each module. He will then fine tune the software to work properly with your computer. Mine system just works fine after the tweaking. He usually responds within a day and sends the ugraded software as an email attachment. So you won't wait to long for a solution.
