Attempting to work on electronic components
and the software used with them can cause mal­
functions. Because of the way electronic compo­ nents are interconnected with each other, such
malfunctions can also have an adverse affect on
other systems that are not directly involved. This
means that you risk both a substantial reduction
in the operational safety of your veh icle and an
i n creased wea r of ve hicle parts
9 ,&. .
Author ized Audi dealers w ill perform this work in
a profess ional and competent manner or, in spe­
cial cases, refer you to a professional company
that spec ial izes in such modifications.

change the way veh icle systems work and

sonal injury.
