So it's fixed itself after about 250 miles. Maybe there was some crud inside the housing and its burnt off now. Anyhow son is loving it, pulls like a train in all gears from tickover

My son has a Audi A4 (B8) 2.0 TDI CR 1968 cc 2012 134 bhp which I got Celtic to remap for his birthday present. Now at 194bhp 336lbft the clutch is slipping almost always when he puts his foot down. Partially due to the 115k miles and mostly due to the remap as it wasn't doing it before...

Gutted

Basically same power as a BMW 535 d. Except you have a manual box instead of the slush box. Oh and quattro to make it stick instead of the squirrelly rear end. As you say maybe the only thing missing is bigger brakes, not that they are small now. If you started selling these as a conversion...

You'll have to dyno it before it goes Its lucky i'm up to my ears in new bathrooms and kitchen otherwise i'd be back

One of the reasons i went for the hybrid turbo rather than a larger one was i did not want to lose the low down pull in favour of top end power. The car is geared for a bit over 150 from memory so i just wanted to get enough top end power to get it to redline in top. You must be pushing 300hp...

Finally dynoed the 535d Peak torque a little under the old A6 and higher up the rev range with the Celtic Tuning remap, consequently an animal on the motorway, peak power, well as they say theres no substitute for cubes

Sounds good let me know when the map is sorted and i'll bring the 535 down and you can do some back to back tests think i know where my money is We passed 150000 views. Unbelievable.

Pleased to hear you fixed this. I was sometimes able to eliminate the shudder by applying a tiny bit of pressure to the accelerator pedal (it's mentioned above somewhere) but as did not have vagcom was not able to fiddle with the settings.

The fuel tank pump is almost brand new, replaced just before you got it. Is the allroad pump bigger?

I vaguely remember Celtic having real bother trying to read the VP44 programming, eventually i think they "acquired" some Bosch software from somewhere to get into it. It was either encrypted or otherwise inaccessible to start with. Faster than the Merc up to 120? Here we go again, i think you...

This is where i got to and replaced the in tank pump thinking it was not pumping enough. We thought it was fuel starvation or air leaking into the fuel system too, hence the replaced in tank fuel pump , pipes, filters, reconditioned VP44 and spent ages looking for air leaks. Short of fixing a...

Try pm'ing adamss24 he's the V6 tdi man. See the diesel section of the forum

Pleasantly surprised at 39-40mpg cruising at 80 (fierce self restraint following previous Sundays ticket in the beemer, it keeps tugging to go) and also comfortable for 4-5 hours at a stretch. ****** huge boot swallowed ingredients for birthday dinner for 8 plus 3 days worth of luggage for 2...

Only problem so far has been that the plastic covers on the safety belt sockets have popped off, gone back to dealer to get it fixed. First long run coming up this weekend, quick 600mile blip to the Midlands and around.
