Yes, the strong subject should tell how [censored] right off i am right now !
Bought an Audi S3 about a year ago for £18300 from Audi with 19000 miles on it.
I percificaly asked the sl@gs if it it has ever been modified, they said "err no sir this has been checked out by our diagnosis department, we would know if it has"
So 1 year later i go up to AMD (YESTERDAY) for a chip/remap thinking 265BHP here we go ! Drop car off and 45 minutes later Ed calls up saying the cars been chipped already ! I said i don't thinkso not possible, bought from audi !
Was pushing out 250 BHP with 250 ft/lb of toque !
But for a year I have raced numerous S3'S and TT cars and always been neck and neck they could not come past and neither could I !
So how can my car have 250 bhp ??????
What can I say to the Audi Dealer ? If anything ?
Anyway AMD thought that it was OK to charge me £140 for a power run on their rolling road which to be honest is a bit fu(ked up, and only took 45 minutes ! But I paid it, as they did the right thing to tell me it has been chipped already !
But i did find that they were not much help when we asked what type of chip was in there. They said it looks like it was uploaded the same as the REVO type chips, and they could not tell which it was !
But how long has REVO been about, who else does this type tuning (if anyone) ?
Is it detecable ? AMD say no one can detect it, !
I just wish that they were a little more helpful rather than just a print out and an explanation "It has got a chip already"
When their person bought the car round, I asked him the same question, "So it has been chipped already ?" he said "YES IT HAS" and gave me keys !
I feel sorry for all you people who have a chipped Audi S3/TT because I have driven 210 BHP S3's and they are not any different to mine which is pushing 250BHP (Rolling Road) 260 on the road (Say AMD)
Before you start kicking off saying I am dissing AMD I am not, I did not drive 200 miles for nothing !
They got a very good reputation for tuning audi engines (Hence the decision to go there) ! Just [censored] off they were not much help !
Selling the S3 now, Any Offers ????? Shame really I was up for a chip, as the orignal power was pants but it appears it is 260BHP !
Thank You AMD for telling me it has been chipped and not remapping and charging me for the price of full remap any other tuning place probably would !
GUTTED !
