First few thousand revs are not good in first but after that can't complain with the power. I don't like the way that if you change gear fast when your going for it and it dies then picks up again that gets annoying

Any one had problems with 1.2 tsi engine?
- Thread starter deanz cupra tdi
- Start date
No, that can't be it. The clutch runs at engine speed and the gear chosen has no effect.
The gearbox is rated at 200 nm max. which is less than the engine's 175 nm but I suppose that first gear might result in high forces at the gearbox output shaft and/or the drive shafts.
I got mine remapped for £200 via OBD. Figures currently unknown.
Although it had to be removed as the car broke. 2 dealers couldn't source the problem because my car had too many mods (a STEREO!!!). Anyway it went into a 3rd dealer and they found a leaking injector. Took 4 weeks to get sorted though. Booked into have the remap reinstalled on 25th jan

This is who mapped mine
I'm in Yarm so it's really convenient. He's currently getting his new rolling road in and calibrated, hopefully I'll get it on the rollers when I get the map put on next week!

No mate he's refused payment for it, unless my ECU was updated while in the dealer. If its been updated there is a £50 fee for the re-write of the map

That's spot on. Sounds like a great guy. I've been looking into taking mine there just need to get it booked in.
Did you leave feedback on his website?
Yeah he's a great guy! I wrote something on here I think and he's quoted it from that. I'm always dubious when I read testimonials as they could have been made up, but no I wrote something on this forum I think and he's just put that on his website so it's a genuine comment haha!
Too true but all I hear is good things about him so I guess he wouldn't do that lol. Can't wait to see what it's like when it's done
Yeah he's just got a newer bigger unit to operate from and is having the final calibrations done on his new rolling road at the minute, looks as though it'll be good!
I haven't yet, no. Hopefully I will do next Friday but depends if its all done or not. If not i'll get it on them when its all sorted
if i were you i'd go in to get it on the rollers then if needed they can tweek the map to get best results and i would think it's an ecu out job
Early MED17 can be mapped through the obd, later have to have the ecu out and the electronic signature turned off but it's really hit'n'miss on which can be done though what method.

How were the results mate? Can u feel the difference in power?
You can definitely feel the difference, its amazing how much more torque there is! MPG also rose too, check my fuelly and its clear to see when the remap came in...
