CRD-T+ (Trevor) Experiences

[JulianG]

Just wanted to say that I've been running 1-3 for a week now (as recommended by JsyCuPrA), and I'm over the moon with it
There isn't stupid amounts of torque when you first pull away in 1st or 2nd, so you're not spinning the wheels, but get into 3rd and above and floor it and yes thats the Revo feel alright !
I drive a 30-35miles commute each day, mostly A and B roads, but with about 5miles on the motorway... I've been returning around 60mpg average every day this week, and that includes some 'playful' driving.

I would also like to add that my comment about 3+1 not feeling any different, was due to human error... I'd set the buttons to 3+1 but for some reason thought I then had to hold my finger on the P button to store it.... of course I now realise that set it back to standard, so not surprising it felt standard, IT WAS !

So at some point I will probably give 3+1 or 3+2 a try, but for now I'm happy with 1-3
Does anyone have an idea of BHP and Torque figures for 1-3 ?

Cheers

Julian

Popped into DTUK this afternoon and had my CRD-T+ map 1 reflashed so will run it for a week or so and report back

Is there a difference between +1 and +2/3? On 2+1 and 1+1 i have a very unpleasant stutter when starting from a total stand still and engine relatively cold. This dorsnt occur on any 3+x settings.

Is it the updated version?

Is it the updated version?

No it is not. I believe the only different is the map on 1 +3.

Thanks,

Been running the new map 1 on +3 this week and can say am really pleased with it, decent torque etc. to be honest can't really tell much difference between this map and 3+1 that I've been running for the past month. Seems to be the same power and at the same stage - 1.8k revs. Regardless, will stick with 1+3.

Noticed over the last day the engine judders under +2 and +3 on Map 1 when accelerating heavy in 4th, 5th and 6th gear between 1700rpm and 2300rpm. So back down to 1+1 and try that compared to 3+1. Anyone else noticed this?

It's something you will come across if you go too high and drive in a high gear and low revs Mark

 

[Havsgaard]

It is something which I have also noticed when starting slowly in 1st gear on both 1+1 and 2+1 - so I would say it is not only related to high gears and high power. Though it is only for a brief moment, in those two cases, it is still annoying, but it tends to be almost gone if the car is warm.

Mark,

i know I've already answered this and mentioned that you've been running the box too high which will cause these issues,

we took our DSG Golf GTD to the dyno last night and ran it on the new map 1 plus 1

ill let the results speak for themselves

My advice is to try and not get too greedy, if so then you will see issues

 

[MarkBeatty72]

Andrew@DTUK,
Apart from the "blip" yesterday that we discussed, been running 1+1 since last week and impressed with performance. Good to see map 1+1 nearly hitting 240hbp

 

[easybreeze80]

Impressive, I'm getting the feeling I might have to buy one of these soon! The only issue I imagine is wheel spin, I'm struggling just on standard spec, coming from a 4 wheel drive (well, sort of) might not be helping but I just can't see how you manage to get the power down in a front well drive, specially with this car being so light.

 

[andrewpain]

depends on the driving style. I tend to get it "off the line" easily, then floor it when the initial inertia's been overcome. There's so much torque in the 1800-300 rpm range I don't miss the wheelspin you get when you rev and drop the clutch.
I can imagine it can be fierce, though.....was hoping to get 20k miles on a set of tyres, and won't do that with wheelspin

 

[JulianG]

I don't suppose you've got a dyno graphs like that for the other maps Andrew?
I'd love to see 1 - 3 for instance, as that's my preferred map (as recommended on here).

Thanks

Must say once I also added the pedal box to the 184 after having Trevor for about 6month it feels wild now!
