Hi peeps, I live in Westerham in Kent and looking for recommendations for who to use to remap my 120d m-sport coupe. It's an 09 auto if that helps? Not looking for a cheap huge hike but a decent service with realistic gains. Thanks in advance

I know they aren't exactly local, but I've read good things of Evolve Automotive in Luton on here (no personal experience of them though).

Superchip Bluefin. More power better mpg. Do it yourself sorted.

I have heard that bluefin isn't all that? Have you used them?

I have experience of them on several cars. On all occasions they have worked well. Have a look at their website with your car details for a before/after graph.

I used Superchips Bluefin on my 320d ... and it was awful.

The engine side was fine but the gearbox would not adapt to the extra torque and I had it taken off / a refund. I had used Superchips many times previously but this map didn't do it for me at all !! Their manner on the phone when I questionned what was going on was extremely defensive and not nice. Having had maybe 6 cars mapped by them I was very disappointed and will not go back.

The car once reverted to standard was fine and I kept it for maybe another 18 months before upgrading to a 330d. I had that mapped by DMS and the experience was altogether better + superb results.
