[traumapat]

how many cars do you think revo have mapped?

they are all good maps revo/cc/ptorque et al, all depends on your circumstances and your buying criteria

I had remap on my LCR by a well known & respected tuner... unfortunately it didn't work well with my car. I wouldn't say the map was rubbish and advise nobody else uses the company, as my experience was a minority case. Like Saul says, they're all good, and each has had many many happy customers... unfortunately not every generic map is perfectly suited to every car.

i simply stated what had happened to me.... just think custom code are better value for money IMO

 

[truCido]

yeah it is wear and tear.... but the car has done 35000 miles!!! so what im saying is if something fails due to the map they will use the wear and tear excuse....

because in your booklet that describes your warranty you know exactly what is covered by it

 

[sykesytdi]

and it does actually say that shockers are covered in the suspension thats why im arguin with them mate

 

[LEE69]

Fight them if it says so

 

[westoncraig]

take a tazer!

 

[sykesytdi]

ha ha ha there is no way a shocker should be leakin after 35000 miles..... i had a pug 206 gti before my leon which has done over 100 000 miles on same shocks...... and thats a flymsy peugeot lol
gonnna take me best mate who is a mechanic with me lol

I was in having my rear shocker replaced (under warranty - spotted during the 40k service) when I got onto the subject of the remap.

So I know for sure that they get replaced.

 

[sykesytdi]

which warranty though garage or extended.... mine is with black horse extended

 

[brad1]

mate i wouldnt go anywhere near revo.... had it put on mine and the car was running crap and really smoking!! after a month of it took it off and had a custom code one put on for 300 quid... the car is now perfect and no smoking... revo is overpriced rubbish in my opinion..... is your car petrol or diesel???

just because you had a bad experience with revo, doesnt mean they are crap. you might be the only one in a thousand who have had a problem for example.

 

[leontdi130]

mine doesn't smoke a bit with my revo map. gutted!! can't beat loads of black smoke! only problem i have is it doesn't go as well if you stick your foot to the floor as apposed to just short of putting your foot to the floor. I need a custom map with the new fmic and the exhaust which will be in the near future.

If you have mentioned in this forum that you are or will be mapped and something fails and Seat can pin it down to your remap your warrant is VOID!! Fact, sorry to say I've been there and Seat can and in my experience do read this forum!!!

Was it a Revo map at seat you had?

 

[JamesL]

^^ My thoughts exactly.

If Seat have said that it will NOT void the warranty if they perform the remap then thats that. Get it in writing and you'll be fine I would have thought.

i simply stated what had happened to me.... just think custom code are better value for money IMO

Yes Sykesy I think we got that one mate.

 

[sykesytdi]

if i wanna express my opinion as revo is overpriced rubbish then i can.... i wonder just how many other people have had revo and experienced problems but because it cost loads they dont own up to it

 

[Pabs]

unsubscribing as this is one of THOSE threads, which will go nowhere.

Deadsetgav - I'd suggest having a search on these forums to make your OWN opinion and choice about what YOU want to do. That way you'll not be angry at someone for telling you something that may or may not be correct.

I think you've said it once too often actually. By all means sing the praises of your new map, but I think you should stop slagging off Revo now.

 

[sykesytdi]

i"m not slaggin anyone off just telling people about my experiences..... don"t u think its strange how no one has come on and spoken up for revo.... bit like when i phoned them up.... not interested when they have taken your money
