    Has anybody actually had warranty work refused due to TD1?

    They don’t normally store a TD1 code as it is normally only the dash panel value that gets changed

    Has anybody actually had warranty work refused due to TD1?

    Can’t really comment on that individual case without seeing both cars lol however i have had milage inconsistencies before. This is usually found when the milage values in the ecu or tcu don’t match with whats stored in the dash panel.

    Has anybody actually had warranty work refused due to TD1?

    Originally post yes but in the second you basically say i I don’t care about the people who buy Audi’s. And then go on to have a go at techs as a whole in general which in some cases i would agree with you however don’t tarnish us all with the same brush lol. Again can’t really comment on a...

    Has anybody actually had warranty work refused due to TD1?

    It’s a bit of both. It’s done automatically via a test plan in odis which you have to manually select anytime you do a svm software update. And also everytime you save a send a Guided Fault Finding online.

    Has anybody actually had warranty work refused due to TD1?

    You’re making a judgment on my skills and character based on a forum post in which im trying to help people! If i didn’t care I wouldn’t be here now would i? People always blame the techs but at the end of the day I don’t get to make the final decision on what ultimately gets done. It’s the...

    Has anybody actually had warranty work refused due to TD1?

    Any basic issues should be easily fixed by your dealer! And when it comes to brakes its a on going issue with audi and at the end of the day I could report viva diss an issue a week with RS brakes.

    Has anybody actually had warranty work refused due to TD1?

    We have been caught out by one or two claims. And we have had to foot the bill. But all warranty work gets scanned before any repair including software updates and will be rejected for repair if any uncertainty or evidence is found of tuning/tampering.

    Facelift RS3 Genuine Secondary Cat Bypass Pipes

    It's already programmed into the car. Just turn it off using odis. Can be turned back on if vehicle is to be put in storage as it turns off most control units. It's part of the pdi process on pdi sheet however you can ask for it not to be test driven. Same with protective covers. Need to remove...

    As Aoon_M says in transport mode can't go above 4krpm and u'll just about make 25mph max speed. Also suspension blocks are fitted to springs/shocks to raise and lock suspension to go on and off transporter to stop it bottoming out. so you wouldn't want to drive fast anyway as there is no...

    Facelift RS3 Genuine Secondary Cat Bypass Pipes

    Dealers will have no problem showing you difference between the two exhausts if you can find one with both! Problem is the only two cars we ever had in without them was both audi uk cars. All others had sports exhaust fitted.

    Facelift RS3 Genuine Secondary Cat Bypass Pipes

    For me personally i like both. But it's a split decision for me as there is pros and cons to both for me. Such as dynamic indicators and matrix led on fl pro. Con RS badges on seats, floor mats and steering wheel where pfl had RS3 badges. Pfl pro and this will split opinions no virtual cockpit...
