    Gearbox oil change 2.0 tdi

    I want to know about this as well cause I've got a very slow leak from the gear box. I went to Audi to ask them about a fluid change and the seal etc and the technician said that I didn't need it changed as mine is a manual ?! So i'm confused about this subject and need some help too ;)

    Squeeze more power cheaply ???

    simply put ... the 'map' is a file held on the ECU (Engine control unit) which tells the engine how to behave. (i.e. injection timing, turbo boost level, fuel mix etc etc) and in turn this gives you a final BHP (break horsepower figure) and torque measurement. With a remap (which is an update...

    Squeeze more power cheaply ???

    bad jokes aside... you could try things like a performance air filter, using V-Power diesel and thorough service... including changing all the filters etc. £150 would cover that... not sure how much difference you would notice to be honest but its all worthwhile. really you should look at a...

    I think all in with the dyno etc it was £260 for the stage 2 map. He did try 3 maps as well before we got the right result. They certainly spent the time!

    P D Tuning Sunderland. Anyone here used them before?

    I used them for my remap. Ended up getting stage 2 from them, really friendly and helpful. Had an issue with a rough idle after the map and they adjusted the idle rpm for me with no quibbles. Also the performance is now great ;) and mpg has gone up slightly too. Also worth mentioning they have...
