Autophix 3610 VW Audi OBD2 scanner review

[@AFG_MK7PP]

Wow! I'm gonna buy one for my vw. Thanks for the clear information!

[@magnusbae]

For the price this looks like a very competent product, and definitely looks like a much better interface to gain insight into modules than the VCDS interface, and way ahead of the mobile version of VCDS (which is just a hosted webpage). Had a VCDS Hex-Net before, and while it's a more powerful product this seems to do 90% of what most owners need for significantly less, and with a fairly good user interface on top of it. For anyone skimming the comments before watching I'd suggest skipping to 6:28 for the action.

Hi Lou I have an autophix 3310.which I purchased for my vw passat b5 alt petrol.engine. I've been having a problem with electric fan not working I've checked. Cencors.fuses.relays.even fan all working correct. Is there anyway I can trace fault with this don't quite understand it.any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for review Lou! VWs/Audis are very popular here in Europe. My brother owns a VW and he’s definetly get one of theese 😊

[@peterkempf5422]

Thanks Lou, awesome review! I’m going to get one for my Audi A 4 to reset the service due code. If you ever get to Vancouver Island, let me know and I will buy you a beer. cheers

Many thanks for great video! 👍🙏🤝

[@oalantube]

With immobilizer option, can you programming a new key?

[@lexxamillion32]

What's your take between the 3610 5600 or the 7610 all for vw/audi i like the 3610 because it looks up to date.

[@ethelmini]

Will it do battery registration? Couldn't see anything in the battery test

[@andrascsongormolnar1846]

Hi! Nice video i like the product. Can you tell me does it have hungaryan language? Thanks in advance!

[@tomtottleben8301]

This- this is exactly why I pay smart mechanics like you to work on my cars. I hate computers! You explained it in a way I almost believe I could do it and not get a migrain. Great Video as always Lou, but could use some bikini models-- oh yeah, you're not selling them, just reviewing them....

Will this scanner or the blue tooth version be able to get past Volkswagens access codes to modules my 08 Touareg is asking for access code to read live data on the suspension and the air conditioning

[@Canda-fh4xc]

Thank you for the valuable information. I have a few questions: 1- What are the differences between AUTOPHIX 3210 and AUTOPHIX 3610? 2- Can AUTOPHIX 3610 read data or just code? 3- Would this device work with other Car Models/Makes(Such as Nissan, Ford,..)? Thank you,

[@MasterTechLou]

3610 reads more systems and has relearning functions. You cannot code. And it only does vw/audi. Not sure if you can get other brands from autophix yet.

[@Canda-fh4xc]

@Master Tech Lou Thank you for responding so quickly. What OBD2 do you recommend for Ford and Nissan?

[@MasterTechLou]

@@Canda-fh4xc probably launch, or xtool I like

[@califormoi]

@mastertechlou thanks for this video! Can I register a new battery with the 3610 on an Audi?

[@kimsessions7049]

Just purchased 2012 Audi A3 TDI, we have one key and it is not syncing and want to diagnose my own vehicle and do the work. Is this the best option for the 2012.

[@MasterTechLou]

@@kimsessions7049 higher end model scanners that say they can program keys.

[@vitalieeni3526]

What’s the difference between AUTOPHIX 3610 & 3310 ?

[@scoots0898]

Stopping in here as a fellow VW owner. 2014 Passat TDI SE. Any drawbacks from this device being Bluetooth? Just want to verify this devices capabilities before purchasing. Thanks man!

[@MasterTechLou]

not sure what drawbacks you are thinking of? the vw tester is Bluetooth now. all of our dealer units are Bluetooth vci's. this thing is pretty neat. definitely not a one and done.

[@scoots0898]

Not that there would be any drawbacks just was curious on your feedback. Only have had past experience with hand helds (non-Bluetooth) and wanted to circle back get your most up to date opinions on product

[@scoots0898]

And appreciate your input. Looking for a reliable scanner and this video helped out a lot

[@MasterTechLou]

@@scoots0898 yeah they work great. and most often times better than our oem stuff.

[@jordanharper139]

Can you use it to dis engage the rear emergency brake to put it to service mode

[@lexxamillion32]

He said you can I've seen video of the autophix 5600 which is also for vw/audi and have seen it work. I am considering this modle because of the interface it looks way better.

[@mvaz7729]

No longer available ?

[@kenroper68]

Hi Lou passat b5 alt petrol.engine electric fan wont come on.any ideas

[@MasterTechLou]

Fans are common to fail. Jumpin the relay to see if it comes on is a common test. But also depends on style of fan. Too tricky to answer off the cuff

[@izeteyub1907]

Hi, will this delete the road signs display and lane assist errors?

[@MasterTechLou]

Probably not those warnings usually need repairs made and calibrations done
