Niexplorer Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Has anyone managed to call up the details of their own car using the 'educational' copies of elsawin available from ebay? I can't seem to get this function to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 I've just installed one of those versions and it only seems to go up to Modelyear 2004 Code 4. Does this mean it doesn't include data for my 2005 B7? The 'About' button says: Elsawin Version 3.0 CD Version - Audi:2003-06 Maybe I just need longer to learn how to use it, but I don't seem to be able to find any codes in the software that refer to those in the Vehicle Data sticker in my manual. It was this auction, which clearly states 1973-2005. If I go straight to View > Identify Vehicle Type, then Modelyear shows 2005, but all other fields become blank. If I first go to Make > Audi, then the latest Modelyear is 2004. RTFM springs to mind, but how/where?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] From looking around the web you need version 3.2 to cover the B7 i did notice someone on fleebay was offering the upgrade but cant find it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 I've contacted the seller informing him of my position and put the ball firmly in his court. Let's see how he responds... PS Anyone want to buy a slightly used copy of Elsawin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 WOW! He's just replied to my email, given me a full refund and told me to keep the discs! Big thumbs up from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drmotorsport Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 I was under the impression that Audi have now replaced ELSAwin with the online ERWin system. If so then the most recent models may not be covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sponge Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 I've found Elsawin 3.13 on Ebay and contacted the seller. He says the 2005 A4 Avant is listed. Can anyone else confirm (or deny) this to be the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 I've been reliably informed that Elsawin v3.13 doesn't cover the B7. So it looks like I won't be buying the upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
