Default Fault codes - anyone got a reader they would plug in for a pint?

Hi all

Anyone in the Herts/beds/bucks got a fault code reader they could plug into the old girl so I can get some codes and work out what's up with the S8? Pint of lager in it for anyone who can help 😀

Many thanks

Mossy

Looks like a mini-meet "chez moi" tomorrow morning!

Mossyboy is calling in to be scanned and hopefully barzya8 will arrive too to collect the Nokia 6310i that he needs.

Anyone else around South Bucks with an S8 at 11am tomorrow?

You are going to Drink Whiskey at 11am tomorrow? lol

I also have VAG-COM

If its of interest to both of you, we have a mini-meet in Milton Keynes tomorrow night from 6:30pm, these are the details:

Weds 7th June, 6:30pm onwards at Ye Olde Swan, Woughton on the Green, Milton Keynes, just off the A421. :thumbs:

Posting this a bit earlier than normal, day off today, hence having an admin day! As more than one person has tried to arrive a week early over the course of the last year, please note the meet is Weds 7th June - NOT the Weds in the week of the the bank holiday / half term / last day in May.

Our new home is Ye Olde Swan - bags of outside seating for the summer, a cosy 16th century core (no Disney windmills here!) plus most importantly great food! Good turn out in April + May in the welcome daylight following the clocks changing, nice variety of cars, a good showing of quattro Audi Avants in May. Table already booked for 10 people @ 7:30pm, number required before the night, hence the roll call below....

6:30pm onwards, any enthusiast welcome, not just VAG and / or Porsche! Usual suspects please post your interest, potential MK meet newbies please post below so we can look out and welcome you - even more so given the new venue! The meet is posted on RS246, Audi SRS, the S2 Forum and TSN.

Ye Olde Swan
Newport Road
Woughton on the Green
Milton Keynes
Buckinghamshire
MK6 3BS
01908679489

The bit highlighted in red on the second map is the road through the pub - you can access from both ends. Congregate at the north end of the car park, the four spaces by the red arrow are the biggest for A8s + RS6s etc. Forgot to take pics last meet sorry - archive pic from June 2007 showing the variety of attendees! And three of those cars are still with their respective owners 10 years on!

I've been to a few MK Wednesday evening meets, but it doesn't usually fit well with my weekday diary so I've never stayed to eat.

Commercial finance analyst - been here for just over 7 years now.

Love the brands we produce. If you get a chance, try the Glenfiddich 15 from our Solera VAT. It's probably my favourite. The notes are incredible!
