Some IDS questions

Postby takworldwide » Sat Jul 15, 2017 11:58 am

Hi all,

Ive just got a few questions on the following IDS before i take the plunge and buy a VCM2, firstly i wanted to say cheers to Punto for giving me a hand with his IDS on a mates MK7 whislt working in Edinburgh a while ago, which is one of the reasons i want a VCM2 of my own.

I have trawled this thread and just want to confirm a few things

1. is this the correct link to buy the VCM2 from?

http://www.cardiagtool.co.uk/ford-vcm-i ... -tool.html

2. i have a transit connect 08 (ex EON van). the van is restricted to 70mph and i would like to de-restrict the limiter. ive also got only one key, i would like to get another cut and program myself via IDS. are these things possible with IDS?

3. finally my wife has a Smax 58, it has developed a intermittent problem and shows a engine malfunction and esp light at the same time and i have been recommended to get the PCM updated as this might iron out a bug of some sort,rather than taking it to ford and paying for the update, i could buy the VCM for the same price, just need to know if this would be possible or not?

cheers fellas

Unfortunately buying a vcm2 is a gamble, no one site is any better than any other, you pay your money, and take your choice

The vcm should be able to do everything you ask :)
