Remap and clutch question

**harvey6586** · 23-09-2009,12:28 AM

Hi all
Hve a 2007 2.0l tdi a6 avant which is the 140bhp version, really fancy getting it remaped but am worried that the extra power will have a bad effect on clutch, the clutch and flywheel have both just been replaced 80% covered under warranty.

Is there anything i should look out for?

are the clutches the same in the 140 and 170bhp?

Thanks in advance

Hi mate,
A remap will be fine as long as you dont go for full power then your clutch etc will have a better time coping.
Also helps the clutch a little as a remap smooths the power delivery so you dont get a sudden boost from turbo even though you have more power/torque.
Just ask if you need any more info mate..

Hi mate,
Right, 30bhp/70nm torque and yes you will def tell the difference..

What sort of warranty is offered with the map and can i still take it to dealer for warranty work or does it have to be turned off, sorry for questions but im pretty new to this sort of stuff

oh i live in the North East.

cheers

Hi mate, remap has a lifetime warranty, and if the map is ever "lost" by a dealer there is only an admin charge for remapping again so wont be much.. They are only lost when dealers update ecu.
Think 'm lucky cos I haven't had one yet..

Just ask if you have questions mate, best you know everything you can.
So, you a geordie? maccam?
