Smile Re: roomster brake pads

yes sorry, it was a generic remap done by Jabba sport in peterborough. it has taken the bhp to around 145 and changed the mid range torque to send you deep in the seats. it only took 1 hour while you wait and cost £425 all in.

well worth every penny

Re: roomster brake pads

I dont wish to offend so appologies in advance but is this post for real or is it another tuner posting an ad as a real life job?

Thanks, If you are ever planning on passing junction 21 of the M5 , PM me and you can pop round for a brew, I've not been in a remapped Skoda yet.
Does it affect the fuel consumption much?

This WILL knacker the warranty on related items and with a remap thats quite a few things unfortunately. However there are more than a few ways to hide one....

Have a search round the site

Re: roomster brake pads

What affect it has on warranty is down to how friendly your dealer is. My old Vrs was modified including remaps etc, the dealer was fully aware and when it needed some warranty work on the engine relating to some fault codes I had no issues with them getting resolved.

You cant really hide a remap, by its very nature it changes a number of lines of code in the ecu and the checksum. All you need to do is read the checksum, and if different from oem then the car has been tampered with.
