The "VAG tool" is the Audi service tool, not VAG-COM... /daytripper '00 s4 6spd |

B5's don't need the VAG tool either. I cleared the light from my B5 A4
with the same procedure.

Not sure I understood... it requires both a VAG Tool and a VAG-COM? This doesn't make sense. Usually one or the other is suffcient, either the VAG Tool that is the OEM solution, or VAG-COM, which is a 3rd party solution by Ross-Tech. The latter is available to anyone. The former - not sure, but it may be limited to business affiliated with VAG only. Pete |

I don't know if the former can be bought by the man-on-the-street, but in any case it's likely to cost ten times what the VAG-COM package costs... /daytripper 00 s4 6spd |
