Title: pre remap checks
Post by: exodus_ste on December 03, 2012, 03:45:52 pm

Ive finally decided to pluck up the courage for a stage 1 map for my Eddy courtesy of the chaps at R-Tech, which i am mega excited about! Booked in for the 15th of the month  :jumping:

Is there some stuff i need to check up on before i go? Obviously general health is important. I changed the oil 500 miles ago and its had cambelt and DSG oil change 2 months ago.

So hope its worth the 4 hour round drive!  :smiley:

This was discussed a few weeks ago, see below:

Always better to be prepared before hand rather than turn up, find out there is a fault and drive home without a remap :happy2:

Think thats probably answered my queries, thanks. I have VCDS so i can check for anything before hand. I can almost guarantee i will have an EVAP fault code, not thats a biggy anyhow!

Ill be sure to post up some graphs when im back home  :laugh:
