Abstract
A tampering diagnostic system for a vehicle comprises a control system that stores calibration data. A transmitter selectively wirelessly transmits the calibration data. A service assistance system that is remote from the vehicle receives the calibration data wirelessly from the transmitter. A manufacturer information system receives the calibration data from the service assistance system, compares the calibration data to factory calibration data, and selectively generates a tampering flag based on the calibration data.
