A big thanks goes out to Steve Hall for creating the original website that allowed us to share our VAG tools, and for hosting the site for as long as he did.
PROBLEM AVERTED
Update - Hello Locator users. Over the next couple of days we will be moving the database over to the new server, so I will need to ask you not to do any new regitrations and or make changes to your current profiles. Once the databse is up and running, I will update this note to advise.
I've been in contact with one of our users that has hosting services and we are currently in the process of moveing the Vag Locator site to a paid for hosting service.
The good news is that there should be no disruption to the service and the service will remain free to all our users. The added benifit is that by being moved to
a professional hosting company, there should be fewer to no down time and the speed might increase if anyone has experienced delays.
Thank you
VAG Tool Locator Admin
Profile Information
When updating your profile, please ensure you complete the Country and Subdivision sections to help others know where your located. If you update your profile, you will need to re-add these fields.
Also, if you are offering your VAG tool to others, please provide a brief description of what you have. Once again, it helps other know if they should contact you or not.
The added bonus about this new database is that if you no longer wish to share your VAG Tool, there is no need to cancel your account, simply remove the check mark that says you have a VAG Tool and your name will no longer be visible in the locate list. Your account will still remain active should you once again decide to share.
Privacy Statement
This website is privately owned and operated and is not used for anything other than to assist in the sharing of VAG cables to users around the world. All private information that is not displayed on the locate page is stored in the database only and is not displayed, shared or sold to other parties. Your privacy and continued use of our locator page is important to us and the many users that use this service.
Archive Section
I have removed several contacts that have bounced back to me from when I advised everyone of the new page. If your name is in the Archive section, but you no longer have a VAG tool or no longer wish to share your service, please let me know so I can remove your name as well.
Thank you

Thank you for your patience while we were getting ourselves ready, and stay tuned for more...
