Still waiting Dave, I've been in touch with Don & he's having trouble with his supplier's availability.
Good job I'm not in a rush.
I'll give it another couple of weeks then review my options. Any recommendations ?

Thanks Dave, what cable & software did you use to retrieve your old map and to load in the remapped file ?

I've sent them an enquiry asking whether they cover the euro 4 2.4D 163

John

Hi John ,
you have already got your file from your ecu that you sent Don?,
I have a 2002 163 D5 so it uses a different ecu to yours, I did it on my test bench using a eprom programmer , then I got a clone MPPS and use that I have to do it on the bench as I have to hold a pin of the ic to ground when I power up the ecu, and that puts it in to Boot mode and then MPPS can talk to the ecu,
I am going to install a switch on the ecu so I can leave it in the car if I need to do any changes,
I think shark have a softloader so you don't need to do this,
also there is BSR Tuning that use a softloader, and superchips that have a number of fitters,
and Rica tuning,
Dave

Hi Dave
Spoke to Don last weekend, he's still unable to supply the remap - his supplier is not responding.
Gonna give it another week then I'll send the soft-loader cable back & get my deposit back & look at alternatives.
Don is very apologetic, but there's not much else he can offer.
John
