Thread: Re map for D4

Check out roothy's - but the ECu has to be opened up

I'd be rethinking that idea, have a read of this thread:

Also change the oil every 10,000 / 12,000k.

Cheers Rich

Engine, transmission or both?

Engine - transmission at 80k

Yes engine- 10,000 / 12,000k
Auto - every 50,000 for me

I would be more concerned with a remap fast forwarding the cracked inlet manifold issue.

Same manifolds that are on the 2.7V6 yet it's not an issue on that motor, says something about boost pressure in the manifolds, why would you want to risk it even earlier?

Thanks Guys,

This is exactly why I posted. Having only recently returning to the Disco Fraternity I appreciate the comments greatly. A 30% boost in power sounds great, but having already had the motor replaced, under warranty, because of the over filling of oil by the dealer, I am certainly hesitant to do anything which may cause or contribute to additional problems.

I will run it by the people who suggested the re-map and get their response.

Chappo

My guess is they won't even know of any issues

If I ever decided to get a remap done, I would certainly update the manifolds to the latest revision first, which adds around $900 to the cost if you replace them yourself.
