Thems the ones. I think there are 3 differnt models they offered at one
time or another and ive gottne alot of feedback from the local folks that
they break. Then ive read it on the VWNG that many others have had
problems with them breaking as well. Autotech doesnt stand by any of
their products. Thats like having a mechanic fix an airplane and then
refuse to go fly in it. WTF?

Its too bad another company has to pick up the ball for Autotech. Then
again, make a need for a product that WORKS and somebody will build it
and make money. :)
