you have to get the PCM programmed, that means tuned.

flashed will only take you back to stock... you need to get a pcm that is from an auto car that will be your best bet!

Correct...you need to get your PCM reflashed with the same year A4 OS as yours, thats the only way, otherwise your A4 will stay in limp mode (3rd gear only).

Which begs the question: what year is your car? It's not in your signature, btw (hint).

Now going from a V6 to an 8, I'm not sure about the harness, Probably is going to be different, but yes all that you asked can be delted. Mail order tunes will re-flash to an A4 or M6 and remove all codes...
