    Hi all.

    I recently purchased an Audi A4 B8.5 ( 2014) 2.0TDI.

    I have always serviced my own cars and intend to continue. I can rest the oil change interval through the MMI but not the service due.

    What's my cheapest / most cost effective tool to get that will allow me to do this rest .
    If a few quid more gets me worth while functions I'll pay no bother.

    My China made OBDII won't do it.

    My confusion is iv seen VAGCOM's + Ross-tech of different types suggested . VCDS ( is this ran off a laptop ? ) and an Android Carista dongle.

    Can anyone here knowledgeable on such things advise.

    Thanks
