hi all

bought my meg about 2 months ago now and thinking of having it re-mapped.

has anyone had any problems once it had been done, i mean like cluth or shafts breaking, i also heard there is a problem with the particle filter blocking?

any info for me?
graham

all iv heard (not on mine) was of one getting blocked and that was it.

i actually had the light come on the dash before I had mine done, so i wouldnt worry about it. Just give it some beans every now and then

cheers alwayz do give it some

good to hear that theres no serious problems tho

not in my book anyway.

heard of one that was having issues around 7 months ago and that was it

best thing is to get the DPF deleted - imo

Had mine done last week mate. Only problem I have had is taking the stupid grin of my face when I boot it. Get it done it makes a massive difference.

cheers cooky

got it bookin in at TDI tuning next month so fingets crossed it will all be good

not in my book anyway.

Who can delete the DPF, have been holdin off gettin mine mapped as thought it'd be bound to happen eventually. IMO, it's the biggest prob with the car.

Paul at RStuning is looking for a volunteer me thinks :)

where abouts is RS tuning because iv heard good things so might take it there if its not too far

its in Leeds mate, not heard one bad word about the place!

oh rite hmmm not too bad i suppose prob about 2 ish hours away.

any idea wat type of price ill be looking at for it to be done there?

if its the same a the petrol turbo remap i think its £395 and £50 for the optional before and after rolling road,
but for £200 you can buy the remote box and get the remap sent to you?? but its not too far for you to travel i suppose (compared to me lol)

yeh just a lil bit closer than u are lol

so wats the remote box?

so wats the remote box?[/QUOTE]

anyone no wat a remote box is?

yeah sorry its a box that you use to apply the map to your car yourself (very easy) instead of going all the way to leeds, you can also switch the map back to standard anytime you want which is very useful! you can check and clear fault codes aswell!

Does not support the DCI though i'm afraid

ok thaknx

any idea where i can get a remote box from for a dci 175

Does not support the DCI though i'm afraid

oops :o

Does not support the DCI though i'm afraid

So is the only option a full remap then?

yup, worth it

so if a full re-map is all thats available then thats wat it shall have lol

ill let everyone no how it goes when it is done, may be a lil while tho due to lack of money lol

cheers for all the advice and info everyone

Im looking at mving from a clio 182 to a meg 225 or the 175 dci, most probably the later. If i do i'm pretty certain i'll go for a remap but i hear the Diesels smoke like mad when remapped. Can anyone who's had the remap done let me know some feedback please.

Cheers, Gaz

no smoke chief due to DPF (diesel particulate filter)

Great cheers for that. I've just seen a few mapped astra diesels that look terrible! Could be very tempted by the 175 now! Looking at around 200bhp remapped then with a **** load of torque?

my gt is over 200 bhp with as much torque as the higest powered R26's :)

Over 200bhp from a GT - damn I bet that thing shifts!

Ive driven the GT and 175 a few times. Thought the GT was a cracking little motor even with 'only' 150bhp

They must seriously pull hard running those high torque fig's and 200+ bhp

Does it not effect mpg??

Oh my first post back then. Just to say hi everyone :-)

Great cheers for that. I've just seen a few mapped astra diesels that look terrible! Could be very tempted by the 175 now! Looking at around 200bhp remapped then with a **** load of torque?

215bhp and 343lbft on a 175dci.

215bhp and 343lbft on a 175dci.

where did u get urs re-mapped mate

rs tuning.

if you get a Forge front mount you may get a slighter few more lb/ft

oh and an exhaust may also release a few bhp.

ok cheers

ill give them a call tomoz

ok cheers

ill give them a call tomoz

iv got a straight through pipe on it already

it feels abit better for it too

rs tuning.

if you get a Forge front mount you may get a slighter few more lb/ft

Did you get a forge intercooler on yours when in the end?

nah.

long story, car projects went out the window for a while - engagement --> engagement party --> being made redundant

sorted now thank fook.

engagement --> engagement party --> being made redundant



normal week in glasgow no? :tt2:

nah i missed out the buckie step

U cany beat a bottle of teenage pregnancy eh lol!!


Got my 175 booked in to get re mapped - canny wait!!!!!

teenage pregnancy indeed -ha ha.

..............i wish

had my dci 175 remapped by paul and am well pleased 209 bhp and loads of torque

nice results,will make a huge difference in the way it drives

yep it sure does

got home ok then,did you enjoy the trip back ?
I did apart from the bloody traffic

jay did you get yours RR'd?

yes mate,posted on the other thread

Got mine done yesterday and all i can say is:bowdown: To Paul he is a:sorcerer: when it comes to remaps
cant post the graph as my scanner is broke but he managed to get a still not properly loosend up DCI from 162.5 to 202.6bhp and the extra torque is magnificent as stated earlier in this thread it has totaly transformed the way the car drives cant wait to get some more miles on the clock and see what it goes up to then


Thanks again Paul
Nice to meat Jaybyme too

the diesels normally take a good few thousand miles to really start loosening up,so I would expect your car will only get better.
Good day out even if the KFC was a bit dry lol
Tasted wonderful after all the bratwurst I've been eating

The KFC was real bad, that stuff you eat in germany must be awful if you thought it was wonderful lol.
