I have a 2001.5 A4 1.8T with barely 3500 miles on it so far. It will be due for its 6 month service in a week or so. Also, I have an APR chip and spare ECU so it will have the stock chip in at service time. Since I'm running with a chip most of the time and I understand it stress the BPV, should I consider replacing the stock BPV with the one for the TTs or another after market brand? Will the dealer replace this for me without giving me a hard time, ie why, are you chipped, etc. ? Would telling them I'm just trying to avoid problems down the road and want the better BPV now, be a good enough reason?

dont worry about the BPV until it has an issue

totally agree. my original MY99 BPV is still intact after all the abuse to my car

...symptoms. On a whim I installed a Bailey and couldn't believe how much smoother the car felt in quick on/off throttle situations. Plus I picked up some more mid-range power.
