He had it done by Midland Remaps cost was £179... its a proper remap so everything has been changed via a 3d graph. Mpg has increase dramatically, and performance has also. No flat spots during acceleration etc.. More like the sd4 now!

Just had a look on their website, Very good value for money but its for the mobile service only.

Agreed .... forget the mpg on the dash - the only TRUE way to measure mpg is the 'tank to tank' method. Try it sometime and you will be surprised how inaccurate the dash reading is - it is purely designed as a 'feelgood factor' and can be vastly different to the actual mpg. Cheers,

We did a trip to trip reading and worked it out at 36.2mpg! Very Happy When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car
