Dealer Visit

I will be going to the dealer soon for my standard maintenance.
Should I just uninstall Cobb completely from my car, or is there a "stock" mode that I put it back to?

After the visit, I would just load the same Map again from scratch?

Thanks.

It takes ~10 mins to uninstall Cobb. Why in the world would you leave it on when it is so simple to uninstall?

I think you may have misunderstood my question.
I definitely want to remove it from the car before the dealer visit.

I'm asking if the procedure is to uninstall it entirely, and then re-install it, or am I supposed to load a "stock" map that makes the care operate in stock mode.

I had a VW before and with that car I couldn't remove the software entirely, but would drop it into stock mode. I'm wondering how Cobb works.

They can still detect your tune even on stage0 (stock map). its safer to uninstall it completely.
