TT sluggish after audi service :( help

[g-boy]

just paid the bastards £500 and the car is now noticeably slower than it was before I took it in.

its a 180 and had loads of low end torque especially after I modded it (not remapped, exhaust and induction kit).

now it feels like it is really holding back and there is a lack of boost especially at 20-30 revs

is this normal? has the ecu been tampered with?

thanks peeps

Funny you say that, because my S3 feels just the same after a service last week.

Perhaps some kind of ECU reset that takes a while to re-learn driving style?

i bloody hope it 'relearns'...

i always felt my TT was quicker than the average

Software upgrade with a remap most likely.

what would this mean, felt car quickening up today having filled her with optimax, still not quite right though...

I'll move this to the Audi forum for you, it may get more response in there

some services involve an ECU reset, and a car often takes a while to relearn your driving style, best to ask the dealership to log it, but give it a couple of days to kick in. the refill with optimax may just be it's started to relearn. Relearning is probably pushing the boundaries on ignition and fueling until detonation occurs. the reset settings are basic settings that don't achieve full power.
