1. We admitted we were powerless over the effects of our addiction to vanagons, that our lives had become unmanageable.

2. Came to believe that a power greater than our vanagons could restore us to sanity.

3. Made a decision to turn our vanagons over to the care of God as we understand God.

4. Made a searching and fearless inventory of all the problems with out vanagons, and wrote out a "to do" list.

5. Admitted to God, to our selves, and to another human being the exact nature of our vanagons' problems.

6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects from our vanagons, including leaky head gaskets.

7. Humbly asked God to remove our vanagons' shortcomings.

8. Made a list of all vanagomn parts we had harmed trying to fix our vanagons and became willing to make amends to them all.

9. Made direct amends to such parts wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

10. Continued to take inventory of our vanagon knowledge and, when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.

11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our vanagons, and the power to carry it out.

12. Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others vanagon owners who still suffer, and to practise these principles in all our vanagon related affairs.
