An associate of mine in the Re Map business has just completed his first 4.4 TDV8 with great success and none of the rumoured problems.

Hi Gaz, how did he do it? ECU off and split or via OBD? "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.

"Ecu has to come off...no other way.....the ecu has the 'read' funtion disabled by Bosch at the factory. It is a 45 minute job......lid has to come off ecu.....but I have a source of new lids so no trace left of it being opened " So now we know |

I read that the issue with tuning via OBD was not knowing the checksum algorithm. It's not ChippedUK (sorry, Viezu) is it?

That is not a remap just a chip that fools the ecu and is generic not a tailored map to the car, been there done it never again. Far to many gone... |
