Remap Removal...
« on: 06 July 2015, 21:23 »
Hi...

Please read this question carefully as others on another forum don't seem to be able to...

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF I TAKE MY CAR TO A MAIN DEALER CAN THEY REMOVE THE FLASH / MAP I HAD PUT ON MY CAR SO I CAN TRADE / SELL IT ON AND THE NEW OWNER NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH TD1 AND WARRANTY CLAIMS...

It's as easy as that, I don't want to hide it cos I have an issue or problem... NOTHING UNDER HAND

Thanks

Main dealer will charge you a hell of a lot if they will/can do it.

Find a local vw mapping company, ring them up, ask them if they have standard vw map for your vehicle and if they will install it for you. You will have to pay a fee, but for something straight forward, a simple upload, it should be a lot cheaper than going main dealer.

There's plenty of mapping companies around and most of them should have standard maps. If your midlands based, try R-Tech in Hinckley.

Otherwise, maybe you could do it with someone elses Bluefin with the stock map kept on the device. Just upload the map to your vehicle yourself. You might be able to get one of ebay or try ringing bluefin, see what solution they may have for you.

Hopefully this is what you might be looking for.

Once the ECU has been mapped will throw up the TD1 code. Dealer will see this. They can flash the ecu back with the cars standard map for a price. The bluefin device will not allow you to flash another vehicles standard map to your car.
