Motech mapped DSG 'hesitation' after gear change - FIXED. R-TECH Reign supreme
john a:
This is an interesting read and sort of similar to my own experiences. I decided on Motech after reading a lot of posts and threads and, in particular, the OPs post about getting his TFSI car mapped by Motech. My graph, following my Motech map:

I have manual car but suspect my issues are due to the torque limiters not being raised. I have looked at a couple of post-Motech remap graphs and it certainly looks like they know how to map a car, but I need to do some logging to make sure I am checking the right things, and hoping for a response from Motech in the week.

Interesting thread.
I've got the Revo DSG remap (and Revo Stage 2 ECU remap) and I also pre-release tested it for a long time. It's very smooth and really what VW should have released ex factory. I guess that an ECU remapped car will highlight the shortcomings of the OEM DSG box of tricks.
Looking at that dyno plot above, I have to say that the words "dynodaze" and "Power Runs For Fun" don't exactly inspire my confidence. Dyno days are fun socially but the process is a valuable diagnostic opportunity not an opportunity for just willy waving.

I only thought the torque limiters were with the dsg box mind? I must add, that graph doesnt look very smooth at all,

I was sent there on a recommendation from R-Tech (who are next door) who I rang for a booking and was told they were busy, I had the same thoughts about the name but I think it is fair to say the company shouldn't be judged by their choice of name. If anything, If anything, I think it makes them more approachable as a business and probably gives people an opportunity to learn and understand the diagnostic process and not just get a list of numbers to give them some bragging rights. These sort of opportunities should be open to everyone rather than those who think it's reserved for a select group.
The R-Tech chap, whose name escapes me now, did come in and take a look at that graph and determine that something is not right, either with the map or hardware (but suspects the map) and I plan on having the car logged by R-Tech to determine the issues.
PDT:
Get it on a decent dyno, the one you have had it tested in is a "V-tec" dyno
(for those not in the know about dyno's a good quality 2wd Dyno Dynamics or Mainline dyno which are the worlds benchmark products cost £40k+ the one used to test the above graph costs £12k, often seen for sale on ebay)
What did the datalogs and dyno results on Motechs dyno say when it was mapped? i believe they have a Dyno Dynamics? Dont see why you should pay out again for yet another company to work on the car?
