I'm thinking of going this week. Can I use someone's VAG to scan an ABS light that keeps coming on and off? I'm not too familiar with people out there so if you have one can you tell me how to spot you? Thanks a lot.

**bugzy** · 11-20-2007, 10:19 AM

just say hi to new people, everyone's friendly, except me

**vduber6er** · 11-20-2007, 10:44 AM

Well I know you Lon and a few others, just been busy to come out all the time. Do you have a VAG? Thanks.

Lon, Did he say where they were going to be posting the pictures they were taking last night? I got some of my own, but I know the photographer he had was taking a ton of pics too.
