    Never mind the fact that the higher-ups at Audi in Germany are cracking down on mods on their vehicles(for warranty reasons). The company is still reeling from excessive oil consumption fiasco.

    They have been TD1 flagging cars for over a decade now, nothing new.

    Pretty sure they can tell the new ECU's have been flashed.

        Yes,they can. Audi doesn't want anyone messing with the ECUs(I should know,I used to work at an Audi dealership). And when I worked there last,there were numerous A4s/A5s waiting to get new 2.0 liter engines(some of these cars were barely 2 years old at the time,so it's not just affecting older models). Also,there was a "bumper crop" of S4s/S5s needing new 4.2 liter V8 engines as well,which is one of the reasons why Audi switched the S4/S5s over to the more reliable 3.0 liter supercharged V6.

          I wouldn't call the 3.0t more reliable, just cheaper to maintain.

              Well it's less "maintenance happy",plus more fuel efficient than the 4.2.
