Performance Enhancing Chip?

[Michael Lloyd]

I have had my etron from new and had an issue with a radiator. Audi advised me that m warranty was null and void as their computer is telling them that I had a performance enhancing chip fitted and now it has been de-activated. The car has only ever been in an Audi Garage and I have no idea why they are telling me this is the case. I just wondered if anyone else has had any experience of it. 

 

Thanks,

All work done by Audi dealers will have been recorded on a central database, so even if you bought the car from one garage and serviced it at another any modification should have been recorded. Logically then, either this special chip does not exist and the garage is mistaken, or the chip does exist and has been fitted by a non Audi garage.

To add I doubt any Audi dealer would fit a performance chip.
