Preparing for a remap.
spwd:
Hi guys, I'll be booking in with R-tech asap and was wondering what checks I should do to make sure the car is good to go?
Not sure what stage it's going to be classed as but it'll have a precat delete and a resonator delete and standard back box and already got a Forge Twintake on and will have a new rev g dv on too, Ive also done the pcv oil cap test and was fine.
So what else do I need to check or change?

Theres a big list of things which they recommend checking on the R-Tech Website before taking your car to them.
On my 6R I did the following....
Full Engine Service Genuine Parts
Millers 5W40 Oil
NGK BKR7EIX Iridium Spark Plugs
New R8 Coil Packs
New Revo Intake
New PCV Rev R
New Diverter Valve Rev G and then fitted a GFB DV+
New Cam Follower
DSG Oil Service & Filter change
Haldex Oil Service & Filter change
Strict diet of Shell V-Power.

Doing that lot ^^ is certainly the best way to ensure your car is healthy and theres little chance of disapointment on the day.
All i would suggest on top of that is the fuel filter. Its under the drivers side rear quarter. You want the 6.6 bar version (latest part no).

I did the Fuel Filter too, 6.6 Bar version.
All part numbers are on my build thread for the OP.

Millers 5W40 Oil. Is this the correct oil for my car?
NGK BKR7EIX Iridium Spark Plugs
New R8 Coil Packs. Aren't these a kind of luxury item?
New Revo Intake. Forge twintake already on.
New PCV Rev R. Is this necessary if mine seems ok?
New Diverter Valve Rev G and then fitted a GFB DV+. Got a new rev g but not the gfb+.
New Cam Follower. Already done.
DSG Oil Service & Filter change. Is this a diy job?
Haldex Oil Service & Filter change. Does this apply to my 06 gti?
Strict diet of Shell V-Power.

Thanks for the replies guys, I can do certain jobs myself but can't get underneath to do the oil and I take it the dsg oil and filter are under there as well?
