Guys, it sounds like a silly question but does anyone know the definitive answer.....will a re-map of the ECU invalidate the VW warranty?
My dealer has stated that it 'may' invalidate the warranty, but its not really a final answer.

Common sense suggests that it would, but does anyone know for sure?

Thanks

VW offer their own remaps. They do not invalidate the warranty.. maybe that is what your dealer is taking about. I would get anything they say relating to remaps in writing.

Good point, about getting it in writing, thanks for the heads up !

I didn't realise that VW offer their own re-maps.....this was never mentioned....are these good value for money? Can anyone recommend them, though I expect that they're not cheap !

Anyone had a re-map done by VW....?

Sorry all, back to the topic, my newborn baby now has a name (I think, as I'm not completely satisfied with it)
For the time being, she is called Gandor-ina !!!

If the "he" is called the "beast" does "he" become a "she" when re-mapped??? I'm no sexist but surely the ultimate car must be a "she"??

I guess my car name came naturally...

Everyday me and my 3 collegues walk in our parkinggarage towards our cars...usually parked close together...

While we are walking I have everyday the same sentence for them....Let's wake up my monster...as I press the key... :cool:

So Monster it will be.... :evil:
