Hi, Has anyone chipped the 2.0 TDI Cab, how did it perform, who did you use and sorry to sound sensible but what happened to the MPG! Thanks :)
 
If it's the 140 engine I'm sure there are lots of other posts in other sections so it might be worth doing a search.
 
I have the Golf 140ps and it chips well, mine is 182bhp and 405NM, MPG improves if you drive sensibly, cane it and it drops. Having said that not matter how I drive I don't get less than 42mpg

Agree with all the above had past 3 2.0tdi's remapped (bluefin) all achieved well above 180bhp from the 140 engine and all averaged above 42mpg - pretty good considering all my journeys are short.

The best money you will spend IMO.

Hi Steve,

Can I ask which chip/tuning box you use? I am soon to become an A4 Cab owner and will definitely want to get some more perfomance out of it.

I currently have a Saab 93 with the 150bhp 1.9TiD engine, I took that to have a Tunit box and a rolling road session on it and it came out with 187bhp, I noticed the claims for Tunit on the VAG engine are not quite so impressive but still pretty good.

Also if your is a chip/ECU remap what will that do to the warranty? My Tunit box whips off quickly when it goes in to the dealership (about once a month with a Saab!!!) which is a definite advantage.

Cheers
