Default CAn I use this E-bay Vag Cable?

Hey guys, I've been looking to buy an OBDII cable and download the software so O can make some changes to my car.

I have a 2000 A6 2.8.

There are SO many different cables on e-bay and I just wanted to see if I could use this cheap one.

I know you get what you pay for, but I will probably only use it a few times so I am not worried about it lasting to long. I am just worried about it fitting and working!

Any help would be much appreciated!!!!

Worked for me. Make sure to read the Ross-Tech advise on using a USB cable first.

Yup, looks to be about the same thing I've got. Let me know when you get it (PM me) - there's a way you can get it to work like the full version that's helped me out on more than one occasion.
