I will let shark answer your questions as they are the experts.

I know they do a soft loader option but not sure on which models, volvos I think are a bit more complicated to map than other models such as VW.

I'm sure they can map anything, but why would you want to map above 205 bhp!

It should be interesting in the snow when it comes. But if you are light with the right foot it is no different.

is this what you wanted ?

I didn't expect it to be so different, amazing what a laptop can do!

Yes I am pleased...it is fine at low revs, but when you want power there is plenty to hand and will overtake with ease. Reminds me a bit of a Mazda 3 mps I had that was 250bhp petrol, but the Volvo has more torque!

I would recommend it!

Hi Richard

Yes we can remap your car with our Handheld unit, you do need to visit us to have the software and unit setup to your car.

Our Handheld unit has just been launched at the Autosport show and will be available from next week

A few forum members have had their 2.0D Volvos remapped and hopefully someone will be able to answer your question about how the map is independently.

No offense but offer 10% off one of the most expensive products isn't that special especially when the guy on the phone can't answer the most basic questions about the device or volvo tuning.

Has anyone used angel tuning or celtic tuning. Someone emailed me about angel tuning but I can't reply as I don't have 30 posts.

I'm sure the guy on the phone was as helpful as he could have been, I'm afraid both Mikko and myself (the tuners) are currently at Autosport International exhibiting until Sunday night. Sorry for the inconvenience but we all have our specialities, and unfortunately the two people who could have normally answered your questions are out of the office at the moment.

Furthermore our Volvo Handheld device has only been released yesterday hence why some of our staff aren't 100% familiar with it yet.

Is the device used just to map the car or can it delete fault codes.

Can you give me a price for a volvo s40 2.0d.

If I can get a few people to order at the same time can you honour the 20% discount.

The device does read and delete fault codes from all control modules.

The normal price for your map is £419 and the device is £200.

If you get 5 or more people together then we will run a discount of 25%. Hope that helps.
