Hi,

I have recently purchased an '98 Audi A4 B5 1.8t (AEB).

I purchased the car and from day one wasn't sure it was running correctly. I drove a friends Golf 1.8t a few days later and knew there was a problem. I replaced the original N75 valve for the N75E variant and also the recirculation valve for a 710n. In addition I have also fitted a cone filter to the car.

I would now like to get the car re-mapped but after a conversation earlier with a local company feel that I may struggle. I was advised that the car would require chipping or that I would need to use a 'Tuning Box' instead.

I have no knowledge of Tuning boxes and to me they don't sound like the best method of increasing performance. The other bit that worried me was that he mentioned a £65 charge just to come out, and that if he couldn't do the work I would have to pay this regardless.

Can anyone shed any light on the above? I had got my hopes up on having her remapped tomorrow but can't see this happening.

I am also in the Nottingham area if that helps anyone who could help me with this.

Thanks in advance of your quick replies.

Anthony

Hi there. Let me start by telling you that your car simply needs to be chipped! No tuning boxes or anything else. I can give you the number of someone who can help if you wish to PM me.
