Default VOL-FCR code reader??

I just got an 850 Turbo Wagon a few months ago and it seems to have a lot of maintenance issues to catch up on. I have a reg. OBDII reader but it doesnt get all the deatails. I keep hearing about this VOL-FCR code reader and was wondering how to get it and what exactly is it?

Haven't heard about the one you're mentioning.

Just got it today and it's pretty sweet. It has a bunch of different monitors and live data which you can export to an Excel spreadsheet. Was able to clear out my P0133 code which, so far, hasn't come back (keeping fingers crossed). Took all of 4 minutes to install the driver and software on my laptop. For $86, IMO, its a pretty good buy.

Is it still working out well for you? I'm seriously thinking about getting this but there are just so many darn programs out there its hard to decide and I don't want to be stuck with something that doesn't live up to expectations.
