Title: New mechatronic change the map?
Post by: howie1987 on February 19, 2016, 12:40:18 pm

My cars had a problem with the mechatronics. so its getting a new one fitted.

My car has been mapped by rtech so will the dsg box need mapped again with the new mechatronics?

Bit of a hassle if so but perfect excuse for a new intercooler if it does lol.

cheers

No.

It will need a full VCDS reset/calibration done though but won't need the DSG map adjusted

If you also previously had a dsg remap then it will need to be re-applied.
