it's the best thing I've done for the car. I just bought my S4 two months ago. Since then I've installed a Evo intake, Miltek duals, AWE DTS, and it came with a X-chip. Ever since I've had the car I've found boost leaks everywhere. A few days ago my check light went off so I decided to buy a ross-tech. I found out that I have several errors. One of them being a bad egt sensor and misfiring in the 4,5, and 6 cylinders. This morning I took the car in for servicing. Wow what a difference a few hours make. The misfiring is gone and now my acceleration is smooth as silk. I always thought the misfiring was the X-chip messing with the timing since I thought the car was plenty fast. Now it's on a whole new level. I finally see a good 1.4-1.5 bar on heavy loading. The car's rpm's just ramp up without a hiccup and really pulls with true authority. I'm not sure what they did, the good EGT sensor is coming in on Wednesday, but it really made a difference. Thanks to the guys at Metro Audi.

- They put in non-synthetic oil
- They left a big a$$ screw-driver under the hood (sitting on my headlight, just WAITING to fall into my timing belt)
- Loosened one of the fan covers so that the blades hit it.

Not to mention another non-20k service issue that I have with them.

My dealership is staffed by nice people, but they must be morons when it comes to technical skills

Phew! Only 1 day of driving on organic.

Turbos should live :-P

What's the temp where you are...1.5 bar is pretty high on the x-chip.

my EGT sensor went bad, so I have no idea. It hits the high boost for only a second or so, then levels off to about 1 bar or so.

Find out what they did exactly and let us know.

I meant the outside temp....unless it was 90 degrees out, I don't think it should spike to 1.5
