They could do that bit they'd have to prove that there was an aftermarket CAI on the car. They can show you the data but they'd have to back up the data with physical proof it was swapped.

Like I said, this is what they are supposed to do but sometimes they don't because they either know that the customer will take their word or know that even if the customer takes then to court, they'll just draw the hearings out to where you'll go into financial distress.

Much like how VW diesel emissions went. It took more than 5 years before they admitted fault. They have the lawyers and will push it out until you bow out or they can't make up anymore excuses.
