Again, it is my opinion about Racechip, and as you know, many people, many opinions.
Oh, I don’t have anything against RaceChip or any of the piggy back systems you mentioned (although I prefer an ECU tune personally). I was just curious if leaving if connected prevented a dealer (or OTA) software update - which has been the case on other cars when using a piggy back system. Would be good to know for people who are interested in this tuner. But based on your response, it seems like you did not have an issue with a dealer software update, which is good info to have.
