    Hi I have a customer who's wife drives a similar car same brand also and none of our diagnostics will connect to it either. I'd say your going to need to go main dealer route to have that plugged on I'm afraid

    I thought that EODB was mandatory for all cars sold in Europe since 2004?

    Where are you located? I am pretty sure a Launch diagnostic machine can read these.

    George is right The launch will read most of these but we've had to use the carman on the odd one that the launch wouldn't work on
