Need Help!!!

Guys, I need help with my A4. I got the Chip installed from APR, 1st time I installed it the car didnt start and the 2nd time it started fine, but it completely stops/dies on me after every 5 mins. Do you guys think that there is something wrong with the chip or maybe the car already had some problems that I didnt know about.

I think I should go back to the stock ECU

Sounds like a bad solder. Give APR a call, they're very good about help in this situation.

Give it the tap test. Start the car, open the hood, take off the ECU black cover and tap the ECU.

If the car stutters or goes off with your taps, it's a bad solder.
