Re: Chips

New to the Audi but not the VW arena. I just picked up a 2006 A4 avant s-line and am trying to figure out if it has had a chip upgrade. It behaves very similar to my '02 337 GTI which had a GIAC 91 octane program. I bought it used from a dealership and the vehicle was an ex-Quebec car lease return, so they would know nothing about it. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to see if the chip has been upgraded. I have an OBD2 reader but doubt that will tell me anything.

Re: Chips

I doubt if someone would leave their chip in it!
But you never know! lol
I have worked on a Passat with a chip in it and the owner was selling it
with the chip still in it.
