It could be worth a punt for 80 quid, but I wouldn't bother....

Although I've never seen one, I think I can guarantee that it will only read some of the more generic fault codes (and not even the whole thing) and probably only from the EMS.

EDIT...just looked at the user reviews and there's quite a few users saying the same thing.

This would probably work well enough on a VW, but not on a D3/4/RRS Thumbs Up

I've tried a fair few software based systems and not many work. Wiggs tried a bluetooth device with an iphone application and got some readings but not everything. I think that's why it's worth puttting your hand in your pocket and get a FCR or dig deeper to get a Faultmate MSV Extreme.
