First service due on my GTD

[dieseldunc]

my vw dealership sells VWR remaps anyway so they can't really argue against remaps etc

Well it appears that if these aspects of the engine and drivetrain upgrade are connected to a warranty claim these aren't covered by VW warranty VWR Frequently Asked Questions plus they don't do anything for TDI's.

The VWR site shows a Stage 1 map for both 140 and 170 Mk6 TDIs.

pullman do vwr parts and this is on their website

Is the manufacturer's warranty affected?
Yes it is affected, which is why each VWR Upgrade Package includes additional warranty coverage. The VWR Upgrade Warranty covers only those aspects of the engine and drivetrain that can be proved to be affected by the fitment of the upgrade package. All other aspects of the vehicle's standard Volkswagen warranty are unaffected.

The VWR Upgrade Package supplementary warranty will exactly reflect the duration of the Volkswagen warranty supplied with the car, consisting of a two-year/unlimited mileage manufacturer's warranty and a third year warranty with a 60,000 miles limitation. Full details of the warranty coverage is provided in the warranty booklet, and will be supplied with each VWR Upgrade Package.

Their Stage 1 for the GTI consists of a rebranded Pipercorss Panel filter, Rebranded Milltek Cat-back exhaust and a rebranded Revo map!!!


Certainly buying the three things separately would be quite a bit cheaper....

yeah i spoke to them and for the filter it was about £90 or something! i paid £30 for my pipercross. the milltek was about £800 and their rem pap was over £600 or if you buy the 3 together its about £1500 fitted.

much cheaper to source the parts yourself.

Apparently the map is their specification and not a generic Revo map, also the Millteks look nice with VWR stamped on the back, I really did toy with the idea of getting the VWR Stage 1 a while back.

They said they'd knock some money off if I didn't want the warranty!!!!!
