They gave him the option to buy new ECU's or they would status 8 it. He told them to F off and then they called MBUSA and had them void the warranty. I think MB is paying more atttention to these types of mods now. It's possible now that the software is detected just while looking for fault codes and it prompts the tech for a reflash. I havent heard about any others cars having this issue so it's possible they are doing more advanced checks now with the star diagnosis machines with the W204 and maybe all newer models to come.

Jon, do you by any chance work for a mod-friendly dealer in SoCal? You would certainly have my business.
