GTD re-map?
« on: 15 August 2010, 17:15 »
I just wanted to get some feedback on here about a re-map for the GTD, looking at a bluefin??

Car's done 4,500k now feeling loose, just think it needs a bit more power?? Still not sure though? Thanks  :undecided:

I've just been out in my mate's Leon FR CR 170 (same engine but bumpier chassis).
It flies.

Well I'm not into remaps at the moment. The thing you will have to watch is most can be detected with the dealers VAG-COM, therefore voiding the warranty.

There are those in the UK that are a plugin unit which can be removed.

Diesel Tune UK for £386.10.

A user on another forum thats is not worth posting the link as you have to join to read it. Had this fitted to his 1.6 TDI 105PS and he is happy.  :wink:

Do what I did and buy the wife a Toyota Yaris. When you think your Golf isn't fast enough, go for a spin in hers and it'll give you a shot of reality check!  :grin:

Steve: I don't think yours is as I seem to remember it sat in the showroom for some months. I think only cars with BW starting 2010 have this and even this is not certain. I don't think mine is locked according to the master tech. I am sure you will be ok.

Superchips checked the car over Asker, and they confirmed its locked. They said it can still be done but the ECU needs to come out which is no good to me really. If I had it done then the bluefine hand held device would have been great for me. They tried to download it with the device but its locked off!!  :sad:
