You won't regret it - apart from the fact that you'll want to keep giving Jim money for more mods............................

Had my octy VRs remapped two weeks ago by Star and can honestly say you will only regret not doing it sooner

Car now booked in for DV and first service. Here starteth the slippery slope

I'm well down that slope

SCOTIA · 16-03-2006, 20:41

Do you have to change your DV or is it just cosmetic

Glider · 16-03-2006, 20:54

Oh no not more Octavias being done, are they all black also.

You won't regret it. A steal at £299.

bengie · 16-03-2006, 20:59

shame really about when the sale started, if i had waited a day to 2 then i would have saved about £25 on what i bought

whats buckfast?

888 · 16-03-2006, 23:28

why is it more reliable with a DV?, and does the remap effect reliability? what BHP will it be?, ive been thinking i need more go, not even had it a 2 weeks yet

but i need a reliable car so dont want to bring on problems sooner, if you know what i mean!!

bengie · 16-03-2006, 23:43

its not a matter of adding a DV rather than changing the standard plastic DV for a servicable alloy DV

fudpucker · 17-03-2006, 14:39

My Octy

is 18 months old /12k and I was offered remap by the dealer when bought new so I 'm not expecting it be less reliable. Tyres and Optimax will be used a bit more but unless you are booting it economy hasn't changed.

Go on you know you want to

fudpucker · 17-03-2006, 14:43

Yes it's Black as well. Only seen one other Octy and it was Red.
