I'm looking to leasing an A4 Avant 2.0 and I want to chip. Revo seems logical since it's a software reflash, correct?

So the answer is no.

then it WILL be easier to detect

Dealer hasnt detected my APR and they have worked on the car 3 or 4 times

if the dealer has access to an SPS device which many dealership techs have so they would know you are chipped if the car responds to an SPS. APR prevents this intrusion from being able to occur. cheers! Mike

I highly think that you're overestimating how many dealers have aftermarket switching tools on hand. I doubt that any of them would personally invest in a product that only serves to **** off their clientele and deny income from warranty work.

due to being chipped. The old SPS units are a dime a dozen. Check with all the techs and it's not uncommon to have one with an SPS. I agree it'll probably take a year or so for the new ones to be as prolific. Probably not the hugest issue, but since the OP asked specifically about stealth if one wanted more stealth they could look into the APR with lockout. Perhaps Revo may some day come out with this too. Maybe GIAC too. cheers! Mike

Is there a different source for SPS? Are you saying that dealers actually buy Revo SPS to see what is there?

Tomasz@Startup

Tell me more about the lockout feature.

there is simply no possible way to activate the switching. You can play with the cruise control all you want and absolutely nothing happens...no lights, no switching...nothing. Only when the correct code is entered does the swithing process become activated. If a person failed to lock out their program than sure the dealer could switch the programs but that would be the fault of the owner of the car not locking the program. cheers! Mike
