before performing any procedure that updates ECM or TCM programming.
-
Notify the owner that their ECM or TCM was found to have been tuned
-
Notify the owner any damage caused by the tuning of the ECM or TCM (including any adverse emissions consequences) will not be covered by
Volkswagen Group of America warranties.

Obtain the owner's written consent (see attached Control Module Tuning form) for any requested repair under warranty or outside warranty that
requires flashing, which will automatically overwrite the "Tuned" program.

If the vehicle has a tuned ECM or TCM, ensure the Control Module Tuning Form has been filled out.
