Mine is evident all the time. I'm hoping it's just a blowing gasket.

Default That's right, there was an article in Autoweek...

a couple weeks ago that went into great detail about black boxes. The story opened by saying that Onstar contacted the Autoweek test driver of a Malibu (or some other unimportant GM car) as they were doing a slalom test just to see if everyone was "ok". Turns out, they were alerted due to "abnormally high" g-loads. Yes, that sucks and most US car companies are going the route of black boxes.

I highly recommend the article if you can find it.

Not to worry, though, as it stated that all VAG cars are not equipped with data recorders of any type.

Hypothetically speaking, it could be adverse to do so.
