I am now a new, proud, and very happy of a buyback TDI and so far I have no complaints. I was looking around and saw the tuning options, and I was wonder if anyone has done any tuning to their buyback cars yet.
Plus 1Just to repeat from the other threads...
If you value the warranty at all, leave it alone until after. Then enjoy it.
As long as you are aware of what is happening with those who delayed in the settlement. Some of them are getting screwed for waiting. In 2020 when you are ready and they say no, what will you do? Don't think for a minute anyone is going to help. People can't get help now that are requesting it. You will be easy to just blow off. I hope it works for you!I am delaying the fix until April of 2020 so the warranty will likely be in place for the miles between approximately 110,000 and 160,000 miles.
Not concerned at all. I already submitted all of the paperwork and it was already all approved by Audi. I even scheduled the appointment with my local Audi dealer for April 2020. My service manager was laughing when I scheduled the appointment. So I think that I am ok.As long as you are aware of what is happening with those who delayed in the settlement.

Properly tuned is a subjective opinion. You have made an informed decision that is right for you. You are also in a very different position than the average owner. Nothing wrong with that. You know what you are doing and are willing and able to assume the risk, if any.The irony of waiting is that a properly tuned car will be less likely to suffer component failure than a "fixed" one.
I wasn't willing to wait 11 years and 162K miles. So I'm my own warranty. Fine with me.
300 is about right, according to the VCDS we ran post-tune. My MKIV Wagon probably makes about 260-270 with its current setup, but it's also at least 300 lbs lighter.
I'm not sure what RC does with the throttle response, but floored is floored, I would think.

Last time I tried it was grayed out and not accessible. So it might not be available to everyone as a choice. I will check again and see if I can access it.
