    how does a remap improve mpg?

    ^ ^ RUBBISH - a tuned petrol would use more fuel cos power top-end, but I'd say 99% of diesel turbo re-maps give MASSIVE improvement in economy! My car does EXACTLY the same 60 mile commute 5 days a week and is almost never used anywhere else I'd say I drive it faster than pre-map and the...

    Noticed a lot of Citroen Hating...

    P.S: a 30mm drop and a set of 18" WRC alloys on the C4 would look wicked! http://www.citroen.ie/imglib/citroen/fullSize_C4Sport.jpg

    how does a remap improve mpg?

    basically it 'optimises' all settings a factory car is 'DELIBERATELY' detuned to account for crap fuel and poor servicing essentially it releases that hidden potential and the economy comes from the ability to drive it in a higher gear due to more low down torque and smoother pick-up...

    a few dci questions!

    Panel Filter £35 www.potn.com made a big difference from about 3800 to redline on both the Clio and Xsara cos both were wheezy and asthmatic top end before

    OK ive sen it all now

    I've had a great idea! I'll spend 20K turning a 6K 'lukewarm' hatch into a 6K 'lukewarm' hatch that will appeal to even less people! On 2nd thoughts I'll take 20K out of the bank in pennies, go to the railway line and watch as train squash them one by one!

    Just had a service, does this seem right?

    P.S: still nearly double what I paid for a 54K from an independent that WAS done properly cos I know the boss! P.P.S: I had almost the same at Camden in Aylesbury (years ago) and made a fuss thro Reno HQ that I got £150 vouchers - next service £10

    Just had a service, does this seem right?

    I'd make a fu*king big noise to the Head of Service about Trading Standards and Voiding Warrenty I'd be ready to say that you've spoken to Reno HQ - that gets things moving - wrong oil (warrenty) - ticking stuff that clearly hasn't been done - precedures/training? - not warning of...

    Got My Alloys :)

    no difference mate - wheels need to be balanced individually unless a car has been kerbed heavily or crashed, tracking is often an easy £20 or £30 for nowt by tyre depots

    Engine Failure

    Superchip don't fit a 'chip' - basically just re-map fuel settings in ECU The car will only improve with a re-map since it essentially optimises the running I'd say neglect, neglect, neglect - lack of oil and filter changes, thrashing from cold etc
