Thread: To many KM's to remap td5??

I'd be very interested to know what his reasoning is.

Many D2s would have now exceeded that mileage (kilometerage?). One of my sons has a D2 Td5 that was upgraded recently with a much higher mileage and at less cost. I'd ask another LR specialist- maybe one of the Sydney outfits ?

I did mine at 280, TRS chip,
since had a new head but that was from corrosion inside

I think you need to look for another mechanic. I had mine remapped at about 310 000 km. Bigger intercooler and stage 2 remap by Jose. Goes very well. And the price your mechanic is asking is ridiculous.

X2 what Sprover said about another mechanic, as long as your engine is healthy , which ,if it has been maintained, it will be given it has only done 250 000 , nnn or msb ecu?

What do u mean by nnn or msb ecu??
Sorry new to the land rovers

MSB ECU requires physically re-soldering part of the board, hence why its called a 'chip'.
NNN ECU can be remotely mapped via a nanocom.
MSB is in the 99-mid 02 Td5 which is the 10p motor, NNN is in the later model Td5, the 15p motor. What year is your discovery?
Your mechanic is feeding you a steaming load of **** and wants you to bend over for the privilege. Find a new one, read up on mapping a td5 and away you go.
255k km here, all original and about to go down the silly power path

What a load of bollocks. Price is too high and advice is wrong. Mild remap shouldn't have any detrimental impact on engine at all.

ditto

I had mine chipped at 275k after the HG was done at 272K and she pulls like a bull in springtime

...and I've done the silly power thing too and she boosts to 22psi under load and no detrimental effects but then again i do drive conservatively or... maybe not always, like when i encounter a late model Land Cruiser either climbing through the Toolangi Forest or up and through the Merton Gap and i feel i gotta protect the honour of the marque
