revo dsg remap issues..

(1/3) > >>

I had my DSG box remapped at the end of last week and all is not well, I've booked it back in with the installer for tomorrow but I would like to try and understand what the problem could be..

First I have to say my car has got a APR engine remap, which I'm happy with, and an Evoms - it's an edition 30.

When in manual mode and I apply full throttle, or anywhere over half aprox, in third gear and it pulls to 3-4k and I pull the upshifter to change into 4th it violently shakes the car, and when I say shake it's quite worrying. Driving around nomally all works as it should but it's most noticable in the above situation. I also get a turbo stall type noise through the Evoms and then after about half a second it sorts itself out and off it goes again. I don't what to keep doing it as there is definately something not right. :confused:

Obviously this isn't how it's supposed to be, but what I'd like to know if it's something that's not been set right with the remap, if that's even posible, or is it likely something wrong with the box itself? Prior to the DSG remap it didn't show any of these issues and the car has only done less than 6k miles.

Cheers

Did you get the engine mapped at the same time?  obviously the right thing to take it back to have a look at the software to make sure all is right, worth asking them to do a basic setting reset on the DSG.  I would also check your DV if you havent already to make sure this is functioning properly.

Hi, thanks for the response.. :happy2:

I had the APR remap on it since last year and that's been fine. I wanted to get a bit more control over the gearbox, stop the kickdowns in manual mode and auto upshifts near tyhe red line, as I have a few trackdays planed this year.

I put a revision D, solid piston type, in the car the first weekend I got it so that should be fine.

Could be coincidence and it's just highlighted a fault, could be a bug in the map? Can you have it switched off and see if the fault goes away?

Ran mine for 12 months with no issues, can't say I've heard of any either. Keep us updated, but get it looked at ASAP.

You don't say which Revo DSG remap. Are you running a K03 or K04 car?

I haven't heard of any DSG remap probs so far and have had none with mine on K03 and that includes a pre-release test version.
