EMU 'Chipping'

pilotc182 · 27-03-2009, 06:33 PM

Not sure if this is Electronic or Engine but lets start here.
Anyone any knowledge/advice/comments relating to engine management chipping, i.e. to improve power/economy etc.
Are there goods ones/bad ones ? Are they worth the money ? etc etc

In Australia it voids insurance (both the car warranty and the owners protection policy).

You keep saying this, but frankly these warranties are not worth the paper they are written on. The limited warranty Mercedes offer with the Brabus chip is probably the best you can get for a chipped car, the rest are next to useless.

I'll bet the wording says that any fault is covered if it is caused by a faulty chip or remap.
If your engine, gearbox or drivetrain gives up the ghost simply due to the increase in power, you will not be covered.

Don't play hide & seek with words.

Well, you could post the wording on the warranty word for word and that would prove it.
