With the departure of my Audi, I no longer have a use
for my Hex-Com interface and the VAS 1551 adapter.

Along with the free downloadable software from
Ross-Tech you can use the Hex-Com to access and reset
all the readings on a OBD-2 equiped VW or Audi, and
with the VAS 1551 adapter you can also get to the
earlier 2x2 and 2x3 OBD-1 outputs.

Stock Vanagon owners will have no use for this, but
Eurovan, TDIs, and conversions to later inline 4 or 5
cylinder VAG engines could find it useful as long as
you kept the original OBD connections. It can, for
instance, be used to graphically time TDI engines.

The Hex-Com is up on Ebay at
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&category=43989&item=2440859399
 Top bid right now is about $75.00, it cost me $289
new a year ago.

There is a link to my other sales where the 1551
adapter is also offered (owners of OBD-2 cars don't
need the 1551).  The bid right now is $10- this is a
$50 item new.

There is a lot more detail available at the listing,
but let me say that if you've every spent time under
an Audi dashboard with a LED diode trying to count
flashes, this is for you!

Thanks

Tom F.
