The mpg may be low but how many miles are you getting to a full tank?

This was a private matter and if you'd read earlier I posted here as I didn't get any reply from Dave in my earlier emails  but that parts sorted now.
Once my cars back to standard then that's when this can be put to bed once and for all.

As for comments from people saying mapping can't alter engine noise etc then its not worth going in to the fueling side.
I'm first to admit I'm a perfectionist and like things to be right.
This is what I'm trying to achieve.
Dave is arranging for the car to be flashed to standard.

Not an expert at all mate.
I've just been there and done that having more than doubled my TDIs standard power. As I said I'm not a mapper but I'm not an idiot either and I know how a diesel engine works and what happen with a remap.

The whole grievance was a private matter and you could have phoned, or PM'd - but instead you make it public. If you make it public then people can read into it what they like and comment as they see fit.

As I said I've given you an almost complete list of things which can effect your MPG. Have you checked the basics such as your tyre pressures with an accurate gauge?

PDT seems to have gone above and beyond (and still are) what anyone would "reasonably expect" such a company to do. And this I think shows on the thread and I'd certainly use PDT based on what I've seen.

And when your fuel efficiency is worse when the remap is taken off I wonder what will happen then! Maybe VW's map is faulty as well.  :confused: :party: :chicken:


--- Quote ---This case is a very strange one, the car was perfect (with a huge amount of praise from Kev about its performance and MPG gains) with no issues for 3 months before we are informed of a noise, spend a day diagnosing said noise and then another issue arises which is resolved with a battery reset, now the car has lower than expected MPG.

GrayMK5GTI:
I have to agree with Jay on this  :happy2:

Certainly wouldn't put me off going to PDT for a remap for my scirocco  :drinking:

PDT:
Hi Kev,

Not read it yet but will check now, have loads in my PM box and raraely get a chance to come on here these days as we are working a 1 month waiting list with 2 staff away on holidays!

Andy:
Glad to hear its all sorted-did you find out what was causing the issues
