Well Im happy to report that I was able to get it to work successfully with a friends cheap obd2-USB cable functioning as a COM port. I was able to get my SKC code and using that SKC code i was able to program another key using VCDS. I already have the "windows roll up and down function with...

This is what i saw when attempting to use the RossTech drivers: VCDS-Lite-Attempt-COM3 The CH340 drivers do not work with the cable i have. Ill try again once i get a VAG-KKL cable
