that doesnt make any sense...the power increase with a chip is not enough to automatically put excessive load on the motor under normal driving conditions.
No your right it doesn't automaticlly put aload on the engine, But if your yousing that chip you have your going to run your car at a higher RPM and heat range which guess what breaks down engine oil. The harder you run your engine the sooner your oil should be changed.
the fact that i mentioned i drive it gently directly contradicts this.....yes, most would drive the car harder with a chip, but i know how much everything costs for our cars so i try to drive conservatively

wow, toyota rebuilds the motors...

audi would just throw another one in there

I highly doubt Audi is throwing in new motors, they are most likely rebuilding them either at the dealer or sending them back to the factory for the factory to refurbish them and send it out to the next dealer with a sludge motor. I can clean a block and head after it is torn down in about and hour in the Hotsy.
