EvoScan Engine Diagnostic Code Support?
I searched and read a bunch, but I want to double check that the DTC feature of EvoScan is NOT supported for USDM Evo9?

I downloaded the ScanTech software to give that a try. Really wish my generic code reader didn't need to be almost permanently attached to the GF's VW on the other side of the country....

Thanks,

-matt

I guess you didn't search or read enough . DTC have been supported since ~v2.5 in EvoScan. Never could get ScanTech to work on my Evo.

I guess not... So sad on my part.

Nevermind; I went out to car to get lunch, plugged my computer in and it worked fine...

Thanks!

Same problem here. It will not connect to ECU to pull codes.

Had this same issue with the latest release, but this is with a VIII ECU. Sent in a ticket, he said he was going to look into it. Every now and then i can get it to pull the dtc's and clear. But i have to keep trying and trying. Pretty annoying.

I posted this in the other thread and thought Id post it here too.

I have noticed that the DTC clearing/reading on EVOscan can be temperamental.

Usually the only way I get it to work is with laptop on, cables plugged in, open evoscan and then immediately try to read or erase DTC.

That method makes it work for me 90% of the time.

I am also having this issue. I've tried both v2.7 and 2.8 with very little success. I've also tried the method suggested above. I'd say it works maybe 10% of the time for me. Gotta love it. Sent Hamish a support ticket also. Just waiting for a response. What OS are you guys running?
