I remember there being a FORScan equivalent for VW that didnt cost a ton (or maybe it was free?)... But I guess the last time I looked was about 10 years ago and I don't have any clue what it was. I don't need it right now, but one of my buddies just bought a VW and I want to be prepared if he ever needs help. I have some good wired OBDII adapters for my laptop. I also have my old standalone scanner that'll work for general diagnostics, but I much prefer using my laptop, plus having access to service procedures and whatnot.

I'm troubleshooting an old laptop. Any reason I can't swap out the WiFi card for something different? I have a few other laptops that I can take a card from. Is it as simple as replacing the card, plugging in the antennas, and downloading the drivers?
