Hi all,
Apologies if I have asked a similar question previously or if there is another thread, I can't see a dedicated one
Has anyone made VCDS mods and then had anything (related or un-related to the mods) sorted under warranty with / without any issues?
When I bought the car I have been told by Audi service/warranty guy (through the transaction manager who is a family member) that VCDS mods are not a good idea as if something fails, they can be detected and Audi will use anything to get out of a warranty claim if they can say "well you modified X and ruined the warranty".
And also I have an email from Audi UK saying "VCDS is not Audi approved; we can only recommend Audi Approved accessories or modifications to be used on our vehicles."
There's a few things I'd like to do and held off on for a few months because of the above... But I keep thinking about it. Don't want to end up in any problem situation
Thoughts?
