I went for the 50/50 remap. Gains in the region of 20-25bhp 40-52lb/ft. Average of 10% extra MPG.
100 are the way forward and get them remapped! They surprise you every time you put your foot down!
Daz - Cannot this weekend, going down Nottingham. When else you up?
White smoke scream's out turbo, but that doesn't explain why it drive's perfectly after. Faulty gasket, broken pipe...
RenaultdCi.net is your place for the answer.
When was the cam belt replaced + was it timed correctly?
Wild wild shot.
Anyone got any timing tools for a dCi K9K engine which I can lend / buy tomorrow (16/10/11)?
From North East, Peterlee/Sunderland area?
I will collect / return!
PM me!
Cheers.
I know you can get them of West Renaults / eBay but currently car is in bits and would like to do...
I'd just go for the normal dCi with the silver background; Black d and blue Ci
Thinking about it, it might actually look good with the side strips, bumper & rear bumper colour coded though.
As you say, freshen it up!
Silver on a red car, with all blue writing?
Realistically your only looking at 115-125bhp from remap.
Depends on how many HP it's lost since new.
Will look cheap IMO
Spoil a decent 100 :dapprove:
Thought Martin was putting kisses on the end of his post's at first glance there :rasp:
Your realistically looking at 22-30bhp gains, 40-51lb/ft Torque.
I've had mine done for a while now, a lot smoother and a peasure to drive. Give's lots of other drivers a shock at when they see a dCi flying...
Injectors can handles upto 130bhp, will need a uprated clutch when the original starts to slip & gearbox will take more strain.
Your engine can easily handle it, mine is at 125bhp. Martin's old 100 was at 130 and handled it fine.
click here and search pro's and con's of remap!
Wonder if someone can help.
Am after somewhere in the North East to get my Side Strips and Bumper Inserts sprayed Pearl Black.
Anyone recommend somewhere?
Its pretty easy to take off, just need to be handy with spanners and ratchets that's all. The guide is step by step.
Funny how it only likes for 30-40 seconds after start up. I suppose you could rule the turbo out by doing the EGR value.
Speak to Martin_172 or post something on...
Sounds a lot like the turbo, if it is kicking out a lot of smoke. Is it not performing as well as normal?
Doesn't sound like the EGR valvue at all, but if you want to rule that out here is a guide: http://www.renaultdci.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=47&Itemid=55
When you...
Replaced my standard non sport bumper with a 172 bumper yesterday, but just got 1 query.
Does the 172 bumpers have the bumper inserts like the standard (Photo below to show)
Just when my bumper arrived it didn't have any on.

Haha best advice ever lol, saying that, I drive mine hard and still get 54mpg around town. And on long journey's when doing 70-80mph I still manage to get above 60mpg.
Definitely a remap, thats a must. Make sure you choose someone with good feedback who is going to remap your car though. RenaultdCi.net has a remap testimonial: http://www.renaultdci.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=1235
As Martin said, don't go for the springs until you can get good dampers. I...
The car was good standard, but not it is AMAZING. The torque is just :eek: and it just doesn't stop pulling. Well worth £250.
I went for 50/50 so a extra 22bhp 45lb/ft + a average of 4mpg better.
But you can go for the full power remap, 25bhp + 52lb/ft.
To clean the engine bay, just grinded...
