| Re: Elsa Its not worth it as skoda is very badly supported on elsawin.You are better off getting the vw version and finding a vw model which has your cars engine in etc.

| Re: Elsa Elsa 3.5 is being used at the moment in the dealers (in fact I think 3.6 is on its way). Theat could be the lack of coverage for Skoda on 3.3... Of cousrse the data dvd is needed to, or you'll get nothing in elsa...

| Re: Elsa Just to clarify BPM's point. Skoda dealers in the UK and Ireland were running stand alone pcs with ELSA loaded from CD. If a dealer service dept hasn't bothered updating ELSA ( which they got on CD bi-monthly and took ages to load) on the standalone pc, it could be out of date up to 12 months. This was the case up until version 3.4 ELSA for SKODA has now gone to DVD and the dealers receive online updates for data as well as dvd updates quaterly which are used to fill in the diagrams and data for older versions. When this catch up has been completed they claim to have full vechicle data back to 1985 or thereabouts. Dealerships have to keep up to date now ( well from the launch of the latest Fabia) as all services are recorded centrally in Germany and the integration of dealer management system with ELSA prevents this from happening.. I have a copy of 3.5 sitting on my desk but unfortunately.. install codes are now dealer specific Well that the case over here in Ireland anyway.. high tech nation that we are..lol Sorry cb
