Does anyone know where I can get a Tactrix cable in the UK? I've got a VAG COM cable that works for logging, but I can't get it to read the ECU on my 2003 WRX. The same cable, and PC setup, could read the ECU on my old 2.5 Forester XT, but I've tried all sorts and it wont work on the WRX.

 

importing from the states via the tactrix website is the only way.
dont forget the import duty tax, i was stung for about £40 on top of the cost of cable and connectors.

unless one pops up on here second hand which is very unlikely.

Isn't there a thread somewhere where you can modify the vag cable? Could be wrong but I'm sure I've read it somewhere

 

I've been looking for a second hand one, but there are none about. I've looked into modifying mine too, but mine is not the same inside as the one on the thread I found.

 

bear in mind if your copying or flashing a rom onto your ecu and your modified cable fails you could brick your ecu

The tactrix works perfectly

have you tried evoscan for the cable i think they stock older cheaper style, i have ordered from them before and always had quick delivery.
