The 0081 control unit software needs to be updated on this vehicle. Explain to the customer that various control units must be reconfigured after the software update to ensure that they function correctly in conjunction with other control units in the vehicle. Components which have been retrofitted in the vehicle but have not been entered in the vehicle equipment list via feedback documentation (version compare) to the SVM may not function correctly after the configuration process. Ask the customer whether he/she has had non-genuine components retrofitted on the vehicle or modifications carried out by third parties (e.g. tuning) or is aware of any such retrofits or modifications. Inform the customer that, if non-genuine retrofits or modifications have been carried out on the vehicle by third parties, neither AUDI AG nor your own company will accept liability for any damage that may be caused by updating the software, or by failing to do so. Make a note to this effect on the job order before it is signed by the customer and put the information in the customer file.
