diesel remapping

[magpies]

I would like to have my BMW 320d remapped. Ideally located between teesside and doncaster. Anyone have had good service from a company?

I wouldn't go anywhere else but RS Tuning in Leeds.

Give Shane a call. He's based in York but is mobile.

I've been happy with a Superchip on a 320d and a 530d in the passed, but notice they now have a good offer on Bluefin, where the map can be swapped back to standard & vice versa!

Based in Bridlington, really knows his stuff.

Or Paul Murray at RSTuning in Leeds as mentioned.

To add.. All these mobile guys and bluefins etc are well and good.

But if you go somewhere decent like the above you'll get a proper custom map with a rolling road print out showing before and after power figures. Not numbers plucked out of thin air.

+1. Also I had no end of problems with a bluefin device

Tell me more, via PM if you think it's against PH policy.

Rob @ DMS has done at least half a dozen different diesels for me never an issue, always a good boost of power and a noticable improvment in MPG to boot.

Tried their free phone earlier this week and the line is dead Rich.

Dont see why it should be against PH policy, as I dont believe it to be naming and shaming as such. I am just giving my experience whis is surely the point of forums. If it is then please remove this comment.

I got a bluefin for my 250bhp Vec that should have taken it to over 280bhp. Infact it took it down to 220bhp. In addition at 4200 RPM it started running dangerously lean. I had bought through a 3rd party reseller who were apparently told by superchips I had manipulated my RR graphs to show superchips up (I hadn't). The 3rd party gave me a full refund and said they would deal with superchips themselves.

However I do know a number of people who have used bluefin with great success, so I may well have been unlucky. All I would say is if you are going to use bluefin or similar then get a before and after RR just to check everything is ok.

Thanks Stephen.

Bought & installed bluefin in. Turbo diesel & initial impressions are good. Process was very slick.

Not sure howceasy it would be to rr an auto 4wd or indeed where.

Will give him a bell, especially if they do bikes too.

Eventually settled for a remap by Supertuning of Middlesbrough (local to me) they came to my place of work and took about an hour - before and after = I travel approx 30 miles each way to work before 52mpg after 57. Took for a run to Goole (including 45mins stuck in Selby)managed 64 mpg which seems to be about a 10% gain. Power delivery is smoother and also allows higher gear to be used. Overtaking a line of vehicles (3rd gear) seems more rapid and a quick change up saw 100 leptons very quickly befor dropping back to normal speed. I recon it will pay for itself in less than a year.
