Default MIL on, cost for VAG-COM??

Ladies and Gents,

I was driving the other day and went over a pothole (unavoidable I live in a city)and my Malfunction Indicator Lamp came on. I know I have to take it in and get the codes looked at. I am just wondering what I should pay/ what the average cost is. I have called a few mechanics and the prices are pretty high ($135 and up)

Its an Audi A6/2002/96K miles
Just had it serviced about 2K miles ago.

Thanks

Most part stores will do a free scan for codes. For code reading most OBDII scanner will work as well as VAG-COM.

I just received one I bought on ebay from "yesgarden" it will not communicate with the computer after loading the software, I have been emailing with them they say all the ones they have left are defective and can't send me a new one that will work, I see they still have them for sale on ebay though....

Get your money back. If the product is defective why wait?
