    I do not believe it is free as there is a hardware portion to the product.

    I'm actually looking for that program as well. He isn't looking for the software to flash his ECU, he is looking for the switched that you can put on a computer so that you can hook up a VAG-COM cable and perform the switches without paying like $160 for the handheld switcher.

    (I'm new btw came over from audi forums :) ).

    This is what you want: The Software Switcher. However I would check compatibility.

A laptop is preferable to a desktop PC because of its mobility however a desktop PC will work with an extension cable.
