Yep, I wrote my reply when I was in a rush, sorry, my bad.

Yes, you need a laptop with a USB port. Cheap-cheap these days.

Because the port in the 99/00 uses SSM and not OBDII, I don't think you'll get any sort of hand held device to read the codes.

The VAG cable was $30 from memory, ECUExplorer software is free, a laptop maybe for $100-$200 from Gumtree, or ask a mate and offer beer?
