MK6 Golf GTD 2012 Remap :laugh:
« on: 24 January 2014, 19:18 »
Good Evening People

Just wanted to share my experience with regards to having my MK6 Golf Remapped.

I purchased the GTD in march and have been very happy with the performance and mpg but i don't think the performance is high enough for it to warrant a GTD badge as it isn't a Diesel GTI its more so a GT TDI.I have been toying with the idea of a remap for some time and so finally after doing my homework i had it remapped through a company my work use for Diesel Injector cleaning and other things.They don't give the biggest gains and they are not the smallest gains they are in the middle so a nice blend of  MPG/Performance.

A lot of people in the past have told me about MPG improvement and i have always been like ye ok sure its better,thinking what are they talking about but since the remap the MPG has gone up by around 7-9 on the motorway which is the most of my journey going to work and i think part of this is because of all the low end torque.Before if you wanted to overtake something you would have to drop from 6th to 4th but since the remap i can leave her in 6th and just foot to the floor and BYE BYE ;)

I understand what a fast diesel feels like as my father has a 535D 350+hp DMS package and that thing goes well but I'm still impressed with he performance of the GTD and it finally deserves to be called a GTD ;)

Best Bits

-No Smoke
-MPG Improvement
-Doesn't want to make you drive silly
-The power isn't in one place it is across the rev range
-Not a heavy remap so should be kind to the DPF

Also since the remap i have removed the sound actuator and that makes a difference


Any Questions please feel free to ask ;)

I once went to remove my sound actuator and couldnt really find it, I know where its suppose to be but couldnt see it.

Plus my weather strip really didnt want to come up and removing wipers was a b!tch!!!

I didn't remove my wipers,just move them to 12 o'clock position then you get enough room to lift the trim above them :)
