Rolling Road Figures

[bonesfrench]

Alright Guys.

Has anyone else had a Leon FR PD150 on the rolling road. I put mine on at Motoscope (North Allerton, North Yorkshire) and it churned out 172bhp and 360Nm of torque according to them.

As far as I am concerned the car is standard. Just wondering what anyone else had found on the rolling road.

Mine is a 55 plate and I have had it about six months, was running on BP ultimate when it went on the rollers.

Any feedback would be good.

Cheers

They are quite often higher bhp than the quoted 150.
Not had mine on the rollers but have done a butt dyno run on it to check my custom code phase 1. Results were pleasing, but many doubt the accuracy of this method, but i had similair results to you with the map turned off.

20bhp on standard is a little much though. 160 is more believable, especially if you were using (and have used consistently) BP Ultimate.

I think the Motoscope rolling road is slightly optermistic comapred to some others.

I know a few people who have used this road and also other roads with slightly different results.

I imagine its just an optimistic rolling road. As has been said in previous threads why didn't VW badge them PD170 in the first place if they regularly produce this sort of power. Mine has been on the JBS rollers a couple of years ago and was 149bhp and another Cupra TDI was 151bhp....same day, conditions etc etc....would suggest you get what it says on the tin.
