I don't think so. My dealer could tell by looking at the BOOST!

Default Yeah mine always does.....
test drive as part of regular service, driving it upstairs to where the lifts are, bedding brake pads....these are just a few times when i know my dealer's driven the car. and they can tell right away if its chipped or not. its just a matter of whether or not they care...
