I knew it was gonna a 'cheap and cheerful' peice of equipment when I bought it, but really only wanted to check and delete fault codes.....seeing as thats its sole purpose I imagined it'd work well...but....
It read the codes onthe HDi fine, but its not clearing them, it says 'fault cleared' then I recheck and the same codes are there, without even unplugging the thing or turning the ignition off, surely that can't be right?
So I tried it on the Golf -

I'd imagine theres at least one generic code stored on there atm haha!
So anyway, yeah, does anyone else have one?? Same problems??
