Specifically, these instructions apply to existing VAS 6160 and VAS 6160A devices that were updated from Windows XP to Windows 7 using the VWGoA-supplied installation DVDs, and new VAS 6160A devices purchased with Windows 7 already installed. Due to their function as diagnostic tools, VAS diagnostic tablets are equipped with a proprietary Windows® 7 operating system. Unlike commercially-available Panasonic CF-D1 tablets, a partitioned hard drive is utilized. These instructions were validated using US/CDN market devices and software. The various operating manuals included with the laptop may contain information that is not applicable to the US/CDN market. For system recovery etc., the instructions provided here take precedent.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2014/MC-10122315-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2014/MC-10122315-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10122315","components":[{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null},{"id":"software","name":"Software","parent":"electrical"}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"AUDI","model":"AUDI","year_from":null,"year_to":null,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
