    Demo of Revo Software

    Hi guys I don't think that dealers have the ability to detect the chip electronically. They might "detect" the chip by driving the car but they will not be able to prove it. Audi is not allowed to open the ECU cos it is under a Bosch warranty. So the only way that they can prove the car is...

    (Chipping) What you guys do if ...

    [ QUOTE ] No I don't think they do. All they need, IIRC, is your engine code and ECU code i.e. part number. You'll probably have to take the ECU out to get this.

    Chrome mirrors for the S3

    One last thing , here in SA the cars are Right hand drive(the steering wheel is on the right hand side of the car) and I think the cars in Germany are Left hand drive. Does that make any difference or should the same mirrors fit both LHD and RHD cars. Later Joe
