Re-tuning the (de-tuned D4) V60 D3
Hi folks
I’ve tried to understand the tuning terminology (Chip-tune, remap etc) but am at a slight loss - apologies if this has been asked before. I understand my 2013 D3, at 136bhp, is actually a de-tuned D4. What is the simplest (cheapest)?) way to remove this de-tune and put it at 163bhp? Or is it not as simple as that? Whatever that option is, is it at risk of being overwritten when the car goes for service and the usual software updates the dealer may do? Thanks in advance Dave. |

I had a 5pot d3 in a v60 and was mapped which made it feel very responsive. I now have a d4 vea 4 pot in a v40 and it’s a very different car, much quicker and smoother. |

Interested in this too, since I have the MY2016 D4204T4 engine (110kw/150PS). Would I need the map from D4204T5 or D4204T6, or some other?

Have a word with RM Motors in Batley (http://www.batleymotstation.co.uk/)
They're also Celtic Tuning dealers and they will look after you. |

Should have added that mine is the 5 cylinder.
I was under the impression that the only real safe option was the Polestar upgrade. £499 though, which is on offer, from around £700 normally. Though I can see it only knocks a second off the 0-62 time, which is less than I would have expected. Like many say, the 5 cylinder D3, even at 136bhp, feels like much more. Appreciate everyone’s comments so far. Dave |

Just an opinion on Celtic Tuning - I was very disappointed with a remap on a Honda and they brushed it aside afterwards.
Found out afterwards they have a reputation for exaggerating their figures....
