I took mine to get the map put back on Tuesday. Unfotunately Revo have not seen the latest firmware found on my car before (yep.. just my luck) so as far as i know they are now working on another map. Im going on holiday soon, so doubt I will be getting any kind of map in the next 2 weeks!!  :angry: :angry:

Been a good few months i have had to go without now :cry:

Gutted for you mate!

I am assuming its the software VW put on when they had your car in???

Yeah. Revo claim to never have seen that software update before. Seems a little strange as its been on there 2+months.

I spoke to them today and they have already pulled the new VW software update to bits to understand the changes. The major things in this update are on the emissions control for euro 5 (and lambda probe in particular) there is also some changes to boost control too but these are minor.

They have been trying to complete the setup of the flashing tool for their dealers for the 2010 security enabled cars which has taken over all available resource, but this is just about done now so are getting back to completing the various updates and changes required around the Mk6 2.0 TSI tuning.

So a new stage 1 file with the improved boost control and incorporating this latest firmware will be released soon (the impression I got was it would be a few weeks away rather than months).

The formal release of stage 2 also isn't far either and then some KO4 stage 3 software will be worked on too  :evil:

Am so jealous!!! Where abouts are you staying? Hope you'll be popping into kilties ( best bar on San Antonio!) not that am biased or anything!

Can't wait to get the stage 2 software, it's been along time coming! What kind of bhp are they looking at Steve?

It's almost sorted on their stage 2 file from what I understand (running at 99% Ok rather than 75%), they are also working on the version that including the latest dealer applied update for the ECU.

As soon as I hear any more I will let you know.

Thats sound about the same as what i heard today steve. Phoned my guy today as tbh I am getting fed up of waiting for the latest remap.. I keep getting told its nearly ready. I decided I am not going to wait... feels like months since I had a map on mine. So next week I am getting the old map put back on until the new one is ready in a few weeks.

Having this conversation with my guy, he did say that the problems that people get with revo are not down to the map itself but the dealers that install the maps. They never set them up properly.. so 90% of the time its not the map but the dealers. TBH Revo will let almost anyone be a dealer  :lipsrsealed: :smiley:

What the hell do they mean by that? Its a generic map, all the dealer does is flash you ECU with the map REVO made up :huh:

^^^ Exactly, that makes no sense, the only thing I can think of is with the likes of the Mk5 Revo map with the Boost, Fueling and Timing being configurable via the SPS.
