Golf R MK7 - Anyone Chipped there's yet?
Discussion
As above, a re-mapped MK7 R where the turbo failed and VW voided the warranty as the car was found to have been re-mapped. There's been other stories on a few other Golf R forums where the MK7 R has been re-mapped, gone bang and VW have said no to any warranty claim.
If it were me I'd leave it alone especially with knowledge that if the car goes wrong you're in for a big bill as a VW warranty will not pay out if the car is found to have been tampered with.

Be interesting to see how that was resolved.
Reading through the first thread definitely makes it look like the car had been mapped and therefore VW were within their rights to reject a claim.
Funny how it all went quiet.
I would certainly say it worth doing A LOT of research into this before you commit. I have heard of some tuning companies offering warranties for the parts voided by 'official' warranties, but I bet you pay for the privilege.
