Or just don't tune at all an enjoy the car as is or put your money into cosmetic changes.
I get that, but to those that do not track their car...where are you gonna use that power? The car is plenty quick from the factory. Merging and overtaking on the highway is not going to be a problem. Tuning is just increasing the probability of getting speeding tickets. I really do not see where it is worth the risk to push the car close to its limits...unless you just have allot of extra cash to fix things if they break^^^I gave a like before people complained about leaving power on the table
Ever heard of a little thing called "fun"? Doesn't seem like itI get that, but to those that do not track their car...where are you gonna use that power? The car is plenty quick from the factory.

The car is plenty fun out the door. I have no issue what other folks do if they want to track their car. I also know that public roads is not a place to be having that fun!Ever heard of a little thing called "fun"? Doesn't seem like it

Its even more fun with a tune. I almost never even break the speed limit but having the extra acceleration is worth it for me. No need to rain on peoples paradeThe car is plenty fun out the door.

Was not raining on anybody's parade, just suggested to OP that he is not obligated to tune is car..its his choice. Just so you know...police can pull you over for excessive acceleration whether you are breaking the speed limit or not...but yeah I like acceleration too.Its even more fun with a tune.

LOL...well you would not need a tune because I am grown azz man and would not be racing youWhere am I going to use that power? To beat you.
Don’t be uncertain. It’s pretty simple. You either stay stock, no concerns over your warranty. Or you tune, and accept the likelihood that something probably WONT happen. But - if something DOES happen, you need to be prepared to spend the money to fix something that would’ve been covered.I see. Thanks for the help. I’m so uncertain on what to do…
Hey everyone, just bought a 2019 GTI and I’m new to the modding/tuning scene and new to the community aswell. Went to my VW dealership yesterday to get an oil change and saw they were selling unitronic parts including the tuning equipment and also IE tuning equipment. When I asked about why they were selling it I was told by one of the workers that “yes it does void your warranty, but we’re not gonna screw you for buying our stuff. We would only find it if we were to really look for it or if you told us to look for a tune.” This intrigued me and has had me thinking. I’m wanting to daily drive my car but also have some extra power to have some more fun but I’m unsure on what to really spend my money on. I know JB4 is supposedly safe from warranty and safer but I know that a lot of people prefer the flash tunes and stuff from unitronic and the only reason I was really considering it is bc of what the worker told me at the dealership yesterday. Should I put any weight into what he said? Or should I just get a jb4 until warranty is over? I’m looking for any kind of help or tips and tricks, thanks!!!
