'''Ross-Tech Wiki''', founded January 2006, is a closed [[wiki]] run by Ross-Tech for general {{tag|information}} and detailed help on their 'factory level' VAG-COM Diagnostic System (VCDS™) – for use on all Volkswagen Group (VWAG) {{tag|vehicles}}; which include Volkswagen Passenger Cars, Audi, Seat, Škoda, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Lamborghini and Bentley.  Due to the nature and complexity of the VCDS tool, and the very real scope for causing permanent damage to {{tag|cars}} due to inappropriate use of VCDS – creating and editing of articles is normally only carried out by Ross-Tech staff, although other trusted individuals may also be invited to edit.  The content of the wiki (and its related website) is copyright protected by its creator, Ross-Tech LLC, and "VCDS" is its Registered Trademark.
