Remember this when you are in the trunk pulling the fuel pump because it crapped out. It will.
DO NOT buy the el-cheapo for $57.95. Buy the $200+ unit and be done with it for a while.
Also, you do not have to buy the Ross Tech diagnostic unit. You can, and it will serve you well.
There are $30 VW/Audi/Scoda code readers on ebay.
They point you in the right direction and have way more latitude than the basic OBD readers. ABS included.
Get used to the check engine light. Lot's of coolant temp sensor codes which include the thermostat.
