    Anyone able to access the Engine Control module with OBDeleven these days?
    I get a general connection, and can run a full scan, can access some individual modules (ABS, immobiliser, etc), but I still can't get access to the engine control module.
    No problems if I use the VCDS, but having the cable come in through a side window, and having to break out the laptop is less than ideal.

    Thanks will give that a try as I’m having also problems connecting. Only works on the A4 at the moment

    I did manage to get this to work. What I found was that the connection "fails" and I get the option to retry or continue. If I continue I can choose Audi 80 since that car is in my garage and then I can read the fault codes and see live data.
    I have found live data to be less than robust but I do not have a good mobile data connection outside my house and I know this causes issues with OBDeleven.

    I did use this on my S2 Avant in the past but tried to connect yesterday to debug an emissions issue and it's not connecting. Wondering if I need to dig into the wiring or not
    Sorry about the late reply!
    I am able to get a general connection, but I'm unable to connect to the control unit for the engine for live data and error codes.
    Will yours not connect at all?

    Reviving my old thread
    The OBDeleven worked perfectly fine on my RS2 and Audi 80 until August this year. After that, it has not been able to connect to the engine control module, and only occasionally connects to the ABS module.
    It is now not even recognizing the engine control module on both the RS2 and 80 (Digifant).
    It connects to the cars just fine, but can't access the individual control modules to check/delete the errors, log data, etc.
    It is still working perfectly fine on the B6 A4.
    Trying to figure out if the newer versions of the app has made it less compatible with the older cars, or if there has been some kind of damage to the hardware (dongle).
    OBDeleven has been extremely helpful, and sent me beta versions of the app, etc, but nothing has solved the control module connection issues as of yet.
    Testing the older versions of the app by sideloading the APKs is not possible, since one will be asked to upgrade upon connection.
    Has anyone else using OBDeleven on the B4s experienced something like this?

    I tried vagcom on my coupe and that doesn't work either so it's an issue with the ECU
    On my avant it works perfectly.

    That is real shame....Good luck with the refund. The device is good though.I am no expert amd want to learn about coding -basic stuff- but to check a car out is easy to use. Where can I find info about live data channels ?

    I run the same T+S software on my car (RS2 ECU) and got the mixture adaptation code too. As for the rest - my advice is - if O2 sensor is old- more than 100 000km I would change it - I did and my car uses less fuel and runs more smooth.

    Or fuel pressure is dropping on boost?

    Looks like maybe I could do with a new O2 sensor [emoji848]
    And a check of the barometric..

    Well that was disappointing ☹️

    I got the unit connected and it found the ECU, (control unit info comes up and says T+S Tuning) and I see the engine symbol light up at bottom left of the screen but it's not picking up codes.
    Didn't show the normal engine speed sensor, so I unplugged the ISV and that didn't show either or the N75 which is disconnected.

    I did abort the scan after 7 out of 170 modules, it would have probably flattened my battery...

    The coupe is a bit weird as it's a pin swap 3B to ABY conversion, maybe I'll try the avant.
