Amazon.com: Soliport ELM 327 Bluetooth OBDII OBD2 Diagnostic Scanner: Office Products
This if u have a bluetooth enabled phone that runs the market. Download torque lite from the market.
or u can also run this knock off vagcom software. It comes with vcds lite.
VAG-COM USB KKL 409.1 cable for AUDI VW OBD2 OBD 2 | eBay

Note also that neither of these compare with rosstech's vagcom. But i u just want to simply scan codes the second one will work. If u want to scan and clear codes the first one works better. If u want to recode the programming of the car the the ebay one is the route to run.
