ecu remap question

For a lot of variants, that's basically all Audi did. Just de-tuned lower spec models, or to fit them inside certain road tax brackets.

Indeed, there are another couple of official states of tune for the OP's Engine (although whether they also have any hardware differences is difficult to know)

200 kW (272 PS; 268 bhp) at 3,500-4,250 rpm; 580 N⋅m (428 lbf⋅ft) at 1,250-3,250 rpm — Audi A6#C7, Audi A7 (2014-2017)
210 kW (286 PS; 282 bhp) at 4,000 rpm; 620 N⋅m (457 lbf⋅ft) at 1,750-3,000 rpm — Audi A4, Audi A5, Audi A6#C8, Audi A7, Audi A8, Audi Q7, Audi Q8 (2017+)

 
At 12 years old be prepared for something to fail. It probably won't happen but if you've got any components that are approaching the end of their life then a remap tends to see them on their way pretty rapidly.
 
Use a trusted tuner, prepare for things to start breaking not long after the remap on older cars if they have not been maintained to a high standard.
If its a well looked after car and you use a good mapper - you should have no major issues. Other than the clutch might start to slip if youre remapping a 3.0tdi with a 12 year old clutch.
