Remap and disconnecting the battery

WRC_068 · 06-09-2006, 12:54

If i disconnect the battery to fit my Carbonio CAI will this cause any problems with the remap i've had done ???

Quinten · 06-09-2006, 13:15

No (regardless of what remap you've had)

WRC_068 · 06-09-2006, 13:21

Are you sure Q?

I have heard of Revo maps being "lost" when the bettery is disconnected (and I'm sure others have hear dthat too)

I stand corrected then, not the best remap if it disapears when you disconect the battery though

In truth it didn't remove the map but timing advance was set back to normal which gave the impression of no map.

Ah crap i've done it now, will have to get it checked

Ive just spoken to Revo, and they said if you disconnect the battery on the 2.0T FSI engines it will reset the timings back to 0. So either use your slect plus switch to reset the timnigs in software or visit the dealer!

That's the one I know about.

Does this only affect the petrol engines or the diesel ones too?

Quinten · 06-09-2006, 19:16

You learn a new thing everyday...

WRC_068 · 06-09-2006, 20:31

Fek i wasn't told that when i got the remap, i wouldnt have disconnected it then,

I better arange to get it in to change the timing again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DanGB · 06-09-2006, 20:48

apparently is just the 2.0T FSI engines.

WRC_068 · 08-09-2006, 09:07

Yeh spoke to the dude who did my car, he spoke to REVO and i believe it is only the 2.0 FSI and some other engine types. The 1.8T's are fine

. My car has no noticeable drop in performance
