I had a tuning box on my a3 1.4 140ps, and I still have it, it does give a marked difference in the performance in all gears and especially in the grunt. The only thing I noticed was that the engine seemed to take, and this is the only way to describe it, a big gulp of breath sometimes and this happened at any rpm...

When you put your foot on the accelorator there was, not always, a delay in the response from the engine. The car did sound better but what that was due to I don'd know, possibly air intake...

Seriously, wouldn't want this, no and I don't think it was apparent either. Don't want a chavy car just one that gets on it with the minimum of fuss..

Did I read somewhere that chiptuning shows a TD1 code when the diagnostics are run by Audi?

Yes remaps will but tuning box has only had one 'recorded' evidence and that was in 2013. Since then nothing on any vag forum so the information maybe incorrect...

Yes I've had that too, but that was before AND after I fitted a Dtuk's box. It did disappear after a service but then returned. Just accept it now......
