Can MINI dealers tell if you have had your ECU re-mapped?

[ben10]

Just wondering if the dealers can actually tell if you have had a Re-map because i know they put your key in the reader and they can see all sorts about your car and its diagnostics, during services etc..can they tell through this or any other way during normal services?

Thanks

Thanks for all the replies everyone. I think i will Give it a miss. i get the maps done for free soeven if it was wiped then it wouldnt particularly matter. It seems like more hassle than its worth on the warranty side though.

I know i could get them to set the map back to origional before serivcing etc... but they are quite a journey away and it would be easier to make do how it is.

Thanks for everyones input

Hi there - hope this is of some use but only Volkswagon / Audi group cars may have a flash counter.

neither the R56 or the R50/R53 variant MINIs have a flash counter.

All mapping is invisible to Dealership diagnostics - however the power difference maybe noticed by an experienced technician on a test drive.

We offer a back to standard free service for anyone who is still worried when they want to take their car in for warranty work - however my car (R56 Cooper S) has been in many times since an ECU Remap and has never had a query.

Thanks, greatly appreciated
