Re: Anyone here chipped a leased car?
I dont see where the chip would really hurt a 4.2
And when you get ready to turn it back in, you could always sell the chip to someone here. So you would get a buck or two back.
Not endorsing the idea, just listing it as an option,,,
As I always say, Stay Stock and Stay Almost Worry Free !

You can do anything you want (almost) to a lease
as long as you can undo it before you return it.
But be aware that there are potential warranty issues when you chip, lease or not. Some dealers are cool about it, some run screaming.

And if for some reason the next owner learns the car is chipped and has parts of their warranty
voided as a result, they can pursue legal action against the previous owner who modified the car and concealed what they did. CYA.

Depends what kind of codes are left behind. You need to clear all codes - in which case that
can look a little odd too.
Basically if you choose to chip, then you need to accept some risk.
