Tuning boxes are not the best way to increase power output from an engine. You should look at a proper remap instead.

Personally I would go to Bell Auto Services - Pete has been doing this for a long time and has a very good reputation Thumbs Up

With the extended warranty can you not just play ignorant and say it was like that when i bought it?


Im sure there are cars on the market that have been remapped but to the new owner a remap may not necssarily be apparent? Present :2008 TDV8 HSE

Hi 5imon,

Had the BAS remap on my RRS TDV8 for over 2 years via the BAS remap interface box (switchable box) and what an improvement it was - more useable power when needed and less hesitation (not that there was much in the first place) and she was so much more responcive etc.

Try here for a second hand BAS box (switchable box for warranty reasons etc) http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic72509.html

Keep looking on the D3/4 and RRS forums if this one has sold as they do come up from time to time Thumbs Up "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.

Dont forget, ignorance is no excuse in the eyes of the law and I do believe LR would be the law if this were to happen Big Cry and any warranty would be removed Rolling Eyes "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.

How much will it cost to get the box remapped to my car?
