I just purchased the car listed above Limited Edition PZEV. I have a Launch Code reader VII+. It will not connect because the port is a different plug. Any ideas about an adapter. I know I want to get me a VAG cable eventually.

Well, I feel like an idiot. I tried today with good sunlight and was able to get the scanner connected. It was a very tight fit. I still have the exterior bulb indicator lit up. And getting the error message. Cruise control will not work. Did a scan and pulled two codes. One is a p1698 and the other is a po304.
