There's a list somewhere of people on the forums who have Vag-Com's and are able to check out what's up. I wish i had the link, i'll see if i can find it.
5 minutes later...

Found it

vagcomlocator.com
VAG Tool Locator

Most people will read the codes for free, some charge 20.00 or case of beer. Check it out. Hope it helps
