Maybe he used 5-10eur KKL cable from ebay.

He was using non ross tech vcds 12.12 version or similar.

I think on all the older 2x2 k-line version cars you can check any fault codes with blinker light - http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/troubl...f_MC2.html#led
Easiest way to test the vcds cable would be on a different car of course.

It is the same issue on friends audi a3 1999 1,9tdi. I am sending it back and asking for another cable. I checked yesterday if 2x2 adaptor has correct wiring and it has. So the only explanation I have is that there are issues with vcds cable it self. Could it be possible that it is because of the version 15.7.1? Should I be going for a different version? Recommendations?

I had a similar problem a few years ago with a genuine Ross tech cable . I scanned my RS2 by using a 2x2 adapter and it worked once . Afterwards it would not recgnise and came up with the same message ' not plugged into car ' even in a different car . Somehow the cable had been damaged internally so had to buy a new one from Ross tech. They did take my old one back by offering an upgrade option.

Yeah, hopefully new cable will sort out all my issues

Solved: a new cable came in the other day. Everything connected like a charm from first try. Could not connect to immo module due to the aftermarket radio. Thanks for help.
