Did you configure the software and vag-com's settings to com1? if not,there is your reason why its not finding your car.

I assume you are using vcds-lite? if so,it asks you to configure the setting,then save the settings,once the vag-com and software have been set properly.

I told you,go into the vag-com setting in device manager,set it to com1 in the properties,then advanced settings,then change the settings,in the software to com1,it should work then i hope you installed the drivers
