[QUOTE="purpledog07, post: 640379, member: 22687"] I have an OBDII reader for modern motors, £30+ i think, can't remember where from. It's OK, can reset some faults but not service schedule nag on my A3. There are loads about. If you want something more specific, get mftr software like VAGCOM on a laptop and a harness to connect up. For the bus I use a multimeter or simple test lamp, or swap out plugs/leads for spares if suspected dodgy. There is a diagnostic plug in the engine bay on some buses, if it's there and the wiring is correct, it has test points for most items which you can use a meter to test from as long as you know what to result to expect.
