Please help me diagnose problem: When chipped my car feels FWD. When stock the dealer can't detect
the issue...
I always drive my car in chip mode. Started a few months ago...car started feeling like the AWD was behaving erratically.
Then one day it just went FWD. No grip in the rain, torque steer, all that...
Took it to the dealership with the chip OFF. They can't duplicate and they say there are no codes... What to do? What could it be?

First do some diagnostics...>
On the haldex. An electrical fault will generally show up with a Vag scan.
Perform these. A bad controller is not that unusual..<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1452481.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1452481.phtml</a</li></ul>

oh and the light that comes on when you push the esp button is always on... could my MAF problem be causing this?
