At last some figures...

The lease company phoned today...

In short 1400 euro tuning....and 30 euro pro month more fuel cost and a factor for tires....adds up to 60 euro per month for the coming 48 months... :lipsrsealed:.

They strongly advise NOT to do it....but hey...that is for me to decide... :smiley:

First I am finding out what ABT does for this amount......

Hi Erik,
just joined and read the story.  Did you go the ABT way?  In September I took delivery of a VW dealer supplied car here in NL and the ABT remap for Mk6 was not yet available so they suggested an O.CT remap instead.  Lease company was OK (EUR1400 cost ) and 12000km later its been a lot of fun... :smug:

I have decided not to bother with any tuning.
I will run the car in first for about 6-9 months and then re-evaluate the situation.
Might just have a new air filter to start with.

a copper... :..ROFLMAO..... :grin: :grin: :grin:


I think I will let go....I am afraid asking a price to the lease company...I will be asking them to please rip me off....

You mean instead of you ripping them off as you were thinking of doing Erik?
