Judge for yourself - here are some excerpts from just a few of the
genuine customer reviews on our website:
"Called up and got some great advice regarding upgrading my VCDS Interface, couple of days later ordered this, got excellent communication all the way through! the customer service of this company is just excellent and a pleasure to deal with. The interface came the day after ordering it which was impressive, came well packaged and well presented. Just plugged it into my car and works perfectly, really easy to register it, easy to use and now lets me do 20 plate cars with full fuctionality. This is the 2nd time I have bought from Gendan as my first interface came from them too and i will definitely be back again!"

"This product works great and has saved me more than its cost, first time, in saved labour and parts at a main agent.
In fact we have ordered a new Seat for my wife as that will be covered by one of the 3 Vins. My two daughters have VAG cars,
so I have a spare Vin to use if they have an issue So we are now a VCDS family!"

"Super product Gendan staff very helpful explaining everything that was required to use the tool. I had a fault code from
another scanner, phoned up VW and they advised that a new steering rack was required, with the price of hundreds of pounds !!!
Gendan posted the HEX V2 and it was with me next day and to my surprise no steering rack required !!!"

"Dont think Ross-Tech need any introduction as every mechanic knows one of the must have bits of Kit in every VAG owners
Toolbox simply to use and worth spending the extra over the inferior cheaper products on the market."
- Chris Davis, May 2017
"Great bit of kit. Bought it to set up two Mk5 Golfs. Still have loads of runs left before any VINs need registered.
Delivered the next day for free along with the treat of a little free gift courtesy of Gendan.
Well chuffed"

"Fantastic piece of hardware/software, very easy to use and invaluable even for fairly basic operations let alone all the complex stuff it can do.
Found that my A6 V6 TDI had 3 glowplugs out and it even told me which ones..."
- Mark David Jones, January 2015
"Ordered this after 3pm and got it the next day! Its well worth the money! My local VW specialist charge �45 just to read the fault codes and
i have already used it 4 times so it wont be long before it pays for itself! Ive found several faults with my 2 cars and they are now sorted!
No more warning lights on the dashboard!"

"I setup the VCDS software as soon as it arrived and I went straight out to my VW Golf Mk5 and everything I wanted to do was done with ease
from activating additional features to changing my steering wheel to a multi-function one and re calibrating the steering sensor A++++"
- Craig Fryer, July 2012
"Fantastic product quick delivery. Please learn by my mistake. I was foolish enough to try one of those Chinese leads sold on ebay.
Dont buy them. Screwed up my Intrument control codes for no reason. Anyway, decided to bite the bullet and buy the right tool!!
plugged it in and it does everything it says on the tin! Wish I hadnt wasted my money on imitations..."
