you need laptop and software? Or I imagine too easy. I read another a8 (plug under ash cup!) once. was a compact rat and according to my well-known (workshop owner) very expensive - that worked of course masterly.
Is that what you're doing with the laptop? apart from that, mine has no plug under the ash cup - probably stop in the engine room like the predecessor of the a6.
at eblend you can also buy software (which probably is not in full range).
because here some error-reading would be a few words not bad. If you are guessing I prefer to go every half year to my well-known (burden) and read there.
Greetings, nick
ps: I searched for it in the forum but unfortunately I didn't find anything. Is it possible that someone has some basic information about this?
