Will this scanner work on a 2009 Jetta TDI?

You might want to go with the Ross-Tech program instead - check out their website - more spendy but at least you know for sure it will work.

Just tried it on a 2009 Jetta TDI. It connects but will not return any codes. When I try to scan the OBDII codes, it says scanning but never returns a code (check engine light is on, so there's certainly a code there). Waited over 5 minutes and nothing returned. Also tried scanning the engine under the VW/Audi section. Same thing. I believe that VW modified the CAN-BUS some time around 2007, and this tool won't work on something newer. I plugged it into my 2014 Passat TDI with the same results.

I have only used it on my 2001 jetta so having you buy this one a bit of a risk on my word alone. What I can tell you is I wish I would have spent the $20.00 or so more to get the higher mod. The online update the one you can store your info in that you get from your car and go on the web with that info to look for a fix. Over all this maker has done a very good job with this unti so you can trust them with your cash. I hope that will help in some way.

I believe that the VAG will work on your car. I used it to find an airbag problem and several MIL light problems on a 2003 Beetle 1.8T. I think this tool is an excellent value.

yes it will. all v.a.g. products. you will be surprised at the power of this scanner.

So has anyone had success with this on a 09 Jetta TDI with the 2.0T? Looking for real world success or not.

I am not 100% sure since I never tried it on that car, but I can tell you I most likely will. It's been a few months now and none of my codes came back after clearing the airbag and MAF sensor light. The MAF I replace before erasing because it was bad. I would recommend you try this code reader first instead of some cheap no good reader

It's an OBD2 scanner, should be compatible with all cars built since 1996. Once you get the code then just Google the error code to get the full details.

All autos from 1996 and up have to have OBD II Computer System and this scanner will read the OBD II on every auto no matter what the make. There are many scanners on sale that will read OBD II and will work on your vehicle. Many for much less money. Even Harbor Freight has some. I do not like my Innova 3140 very much. It is difficult to operate. I have an old Xray brand scanner that is easy to use and I like it very much but it only goes to 2000 and I did not get the update for it when I had the chance. I bought this scanner because it was advertised as working on a 1992 Camry with the OBD I computer system but after I got it I found out it will only work on a 1992 Camry with a 4 cylinder engine and not the V6. I contacted the scanner manufacturer and they did not seem to care. I would not recommend this scanner. There are many for sale that are easier to use and a lot less money. It is your call. Any scanner that will read OBD II will work.

I bought this for a VW Beetle and it worked fine. Unsure if it will work for the Jetta. I believe that the seller website or VW website could be searched to see if it is the same fob. Sorry couldn't be more of help. I hope the fob works as it was great for me.

It worked on my 03 jetta. Not sure, but if it looks identical, take a chance, u can always return it.

As others have said, it plugs into the OBD II socket on any car equipped with such a socket, that is, any '96 or up model by any manufacturer. This item is NOT a scanner, but gives you 5 more feet of reach with a scanner. If, as has been suggested by others, your car is too early to have OBD II, then this item is irrelevant to your car's diagniostic system, which is probably OBD I, like my '94 Saturn. On that car, I can read the limited codes OBD I provides simply by jumping a couple of the pins on the OBD I socket under the dash. Google a bit to see what will work for you. Good luck.

Yes. I have a 2013 Dodge Dart and it scans the code and on some codes it'll tell you exactly what it is and it can clear the error as well

Yes. On vehicles 1996 and on. To work on cars older than 1996, you need to do the OB1 testing which is very different than just connecting the scanner. The scanner comes with the plug needed for most foreign cars. If not it is easy to order.

Not sure about that. You need to look at the little connections on your Jetta. Some shapes are different then others then compare them on what Amazon is offering from their selectins.

Mine works on my Iphone 4 with my 2011 Jetta TDI wagon.I just got a new I phone 5c and it doesn't work with that.

Yes the scanner will check most vehicles from the late 90s.If you go to the Actron web site you can learn what this scanner will do. Jerry

I don't know about a Jetta but it worked fine reading and resetting the codes on our 1995 Eurovan. We needed an adaptor to connect the serial cable to the 2 pin connectors in the van but otherwise no problems. I carry it in the van all the time as we occasionaly get an exhaust leak fault which turns on the check engine light. I can check the fault and reset the check engine light in just a few minutes. A lot easier than trying to get to a garage.

I would recommend consulting directly with the manufacturer for this question, in case there are any differences in models of this vehicle anywhere other than the USA. That being said, the OBD-II protocol is the most widely used protocol for displaying diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), so it "should" work.Please also see my full review as I have other thoughts and concerns about this particular scantool.

This Scan Tool will work on MANY OBDII vehicles. OTC's web site should have the application info. I have used it on all my GM (Chevy and GMC Truck) vehicles as well asJeep and Ford with very good results.

Hi; I think this a "hit or miss" proposition. I received a unit that did not work with my 2003 Honda Accord. I then worked with their customer service to get a replacement sent, and that one works. Plus, in reading other reviews, I came to the conclusion this scanner appears to have trouble with older vehicles (pre 2004 ?), and not so much the newer (post 2005 ?) vehicles. The return policy is you have to pay return shipping to China, which far exceeds the cost of the scanner. So, if you buy the scanner and it does not work, you may need to be prepared to "contact seller" to try to get a replacement (as I did). Did you try the BAFX scanner? That brand worked the first time in my Honda.
