VAG
 

I have to have dealer service(airbag light on) and don't want to sound too
dumb. How is VAG pronounced? Is is spelled out like Vee Ayy Gee or is it a
word-vag. Is it a diag tool or what. TIA

Re: VAG
 

I believe that it is a three letter acronym for Volkswagen Automotive Group,
hence VAG.
There are many different tools produced by VAG and used by dealerships.
There is also an aftermarket diagnostic tool called VAG-COM produced by Ross
Tech. Here is their site http://ross-tech.com/

No need to. Just ask them to reset the warning light.

Surely if it was VeeAyGee it would be spelt V.A.G. Personally I just
say the word and anyone else I've heard has also said this.

It can be pronounced "vee ay gee", if you prefer. But I and many other
people find it perfectly acceptable to say it like one would the word "bag".
So take your pick. Neither option is incorrect.

Re: VAG
 

Well, If I may offer this ... the German pronounciation of Volkswagen
sounds in English like Folks Vagen.(the "a" is soft like Saab) So if a V
takes on an F type sound, wouldn't VAG be pronounced something like Faag?
This could be plausible depending on what region you are in I guess, and way
off base in some others.
Just a thought.. - Len
