Regardless of wether they flash it back to standard, it will still flag up as TD1 when Audi hook it up to there system. Be very careful. If you need more info just search TD1 there's loads of information on here.Has anyone had this done?
I was worried about the warranty being void but the company told me if I'm taking it in to audi they can flash it then re-flash it when audi are finished with it
which turbos?The way I've always viewed this is to assume that your warranty will be invalid,and anything after that is a bonus.
The other thing you need to ensure is that your car doesnt have one of the early chocolate turbos.

Regardless of whether it's a carbon copy, the flash count will still be incorrect. REVO shouldn't be promising to keep the warranty intact when, like you say, there is a chance it will be picked upWon't still flag a TD1 if the car is flashed back to stock prior to going in for any work. REVO keep a carbon copy of the original file/map on server which overlays the remap when replaced, yes there is always a chance something will be picked up so Alex above is correct, but it's unlikely at best...
Flash count won't throw up a TD1... Totally different things.Regardless of whether it's a carbon copy, the flash count will still be incorrect. REVO shouldn't be promising to keep the warranty intact when, like you say, there is a chance it will be picked up
So if for some reason I had to take it into audi and Revo flashed it back to standard will audi not know and the warranty will still be validFlash count won't throw up a TD1... Totally different things.
Stage 2 nowWhy just a few weeks @paulk?
My car is May 2015 so think Iv passed the turbo problems.
Prob not worth the money and chance of messing up the warranty doing this then
My car has done about 1500 miles revo stage 2 no problems but I expect to changd the clutchMy s3 is 2 month old clutch is slipping revo flashed it back to stock and no problems! Audi are replacing clutch they wipe the car back to the way it came out audi. So saying you wouldnt trust a dishonest garage is ludicrous!
Only a few will have issues with clutch just the same as the 8p s3 mines has just been bad luck nothing more!My car has done about 1500 miles revo stage 2 no problems but I expect to changd the clutch
my revo stage 2+ killed my gti ed 30 clutch in about 30 seconds lol
@Revo Steve-W can fill in the gaps. There's never any guarantee but there are ways to be as safe as possible. I've not remapped yet - had a Shark on my 8P but that was simpler. If in doubt call Steve and have a chat, he's really helpful and won't try and push anything down your throat.
Dsg or manual?My s3 is 2 month old clutch is slipping revo flashed it back to stock and no problems! Audi are replacing clutch they wipe the car back to the way it came out audi. So saying you wouldnt trust a dishonest garage is ludicrous!
just out of curiosity, how much is an upgraded clutch for an s3 please
