Hello,

New to this forum, but run a A6 avant 2.0 tdi 136bhp, automatic transmission ('10 reg) which I just love driving! Best car I have owb
ned! But just feel could do with a bit of get up & go!!
Whats the opinions on chip/remap to give a bit better performance & economy? Can it cause any transmission
/heating issues? Is the cooling system the same on the 140 bhp to the 170?

is there any advisory to Scottish Borders / Northumberland

thanks in advance

James

Similar car, was quite worried about automatic transmission... Superchip's Bluefin device seems like a great choice, as you can always put back the original map if you like; car hasn't turned into an S6, but noticeably stronger, and definitely more fun to drive. Transmission seems OK. (larger BHP cars have a different transmission, so don't go overboard with torque.. if I remember right, you don't want to go over 400). I haven't seen yet what the remap companies response will be to the emission scandal, but at least with the bluefin device, you can put back the map without paying anyone... (and potentially swap back again after recall...)
