Compatibility and generation
VAWS V1.0 covers supported Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, SEAT, Skoda, Volkswagen, VW Commercial Vehicles, VW LT3 and MAN Light-Duty applications.
Software updates
iCarsoft VAWS V1.0 includes lifetime free software updates with no annual diagnostic subscription. This generation is updated through a Windows PC / USB workflow rather than Wi-Fi.
Troubleshooting
AutoVIN does not identify the vehicle
Try manual vehicle selection and update the scanner first. AutoVIN availability varies by model and ECU.
A service or active-test function is missing
Functions are vehicle- and ECU-specific. A function listed for the scanner family may not be exposed by every model or model year.
A fault returns after clearing
Record relevant freeze-frame and live data first. Persistent active faults need diagnosis and repair rather than repeated clearing.
Product and upgrade
Technical information is based on iCarsoft’s current product documentation and official user manual.
