    Touareg in D.C.?

    Hey all...

    Am working with Zip-Lock to develop an input device that ties into the CAN-BUS of a Touareg... Good chance we have a solution, but someone who has a touarge, or knows someone with a Touareg in the DC area is needed for a couple hours so some tests can be made...

    HELP!

    If you know someone, PM myself or Zip_Lock (ZipLock?)

    Ryan

    you reckon it's going to work with Golf GTI Mk 5?

    been looking for just a solution like that.

    Yes, that's the idea... But, we need a Touareg to start with...

    Anyone?

    I've got one, but I'm nowhere near DC.
    Might be a good idea to post this message on VW Vortex Touareg forum


    I read your other post concerning CAN-bus and steering wheel buttons.
    I have steering wheel buttons, Navi and Ross-Tech's HEX-USB cable, if you want me to test something with those, contact me.

    In the VWVortex Touareg forum someone connected a USB CAN controller over a serial OBD connector to the Touareg's OBD port and managed to communicate with it (but basic things).

    I guess you can do your tests on a Golf V, Touran or Transporter T5 as well, they use the same Navi.

    Have you looked into renting one?
    It might be worth the couple hundred to get a rental unit.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?


    Under normal circumstances, a signature would go here.
