..or there is the added benefit that if they do identify a fault they can replace (not fix) on site.

Yes, it did, its a NA engine so power gains are relatively minimal, however combined with a high flow exhausts and or cats and a high flow filter, it makes a world of difference. when I got back in my car after the remap it was very noticeable. the car seemed to be alive. torque curve seems to be more progressive, and the rev limit was now at 8500rmp, the speed limiter has been removed. this remap has a 5000rpm warm up limiter rather than the 7000 oem warm up limiter.

I'd be interested to know if the offer holds for RS4s. The offer actually says:

"Prices applicable to A2, A3, A4, A6 and TT, up to and including 2.0 litres".

Don't know about yours but, mines 4.2L :wink:

I got my free MOT on Mon, car flew through it, however they changed my No plates as my car had a illegal 3 spaces between RS04 and OMG, never charged or told me, only noticed when i opened the boot and my other plates were there, also washed it, so that was free as well,lol :lol:

Thought it would just be gimmick to get your car in and make it VERY hard to pass the test without finding the smallest thing to get some money from you ,but i was wrong :oops: , cracking service. :P

Also got the oil cooler pipes ties recall done, result

Also was told if i ever need any work done they will take 10% off so i will stay a loyal customer etc. :wink:

Well I must say that is rather impressive, think your car will look better with the proper spacings as discussed on a old thread imo
