HI ALL

So I'm back with the same dilemma! I've been looking into getting the race chip module for my Audi 2.7TDI for fuel economy as this car drinks with 2 straws! Its killing me on fuel to the point I want to sell the car!! Is it worth putting in a racechip to help the fuel economy as I dont want to remap the whole car and dont want to sell it either as it's my pride and joy!! 

But if the car has to go I've got no choice so anyone interested lol! 

Any help and suggestions will be much appreciated! 

Hi all! 

I have connected my phone to my car it akknowlages it's there however when it comes to seing contacts I can't see a thing I've tried everything I can recive calls pick them up but still have to use my phone to call some one! Any suggestions?

Thank you 

Dammit! Lol thank you for your response 

Daily routine would be to work and back take with about 35 40 mins with traffic it's roughly15 miles both ways other then that city dicing weekend shopping ect not been motoway much with the car but I am due to do a long journey next week

Thanks all for the responses.

I currently fill up every 2 weeks (roughly) it gives me 350-370 miles for a full tank that cost £80 

Hi Dan

Is there a way I can contact you to go into more detail and get some quotes 

Hi Dan 

What are we looking at on top of paying normal insurance for a remap insurance ?

Hi Steve 

Once again at my help! Thank you for your answer! I just want it for fuel consumption as I feel the car powerful enough as it is.. any recommendations as to who to look into for map? 

Hi all

Another day another question 

I have a 2.7tdi audi and realising it's very thirsty just about get 380 miles from a full tank if I'm lucky! I am really considering race chip tuning box or remapping for the purpose of fuel consumption  to be better. Has anyone had either done and notice a difference in fuel saving is it worth it as it cost £400-£500 do you actually see a big difference? Any help or experience would help

Much appreciated for your response as usual 

Thank you 

Regarding the doors I'll get it checked out as soon as maybe worth getting the whole car checked over again.

The noise when turning it feels more like judder if that makes sense but the car moves fine it's just when turning or locking the wheel again it's something that comes and goes 

Hi all

1.So my driver side passenger door seems to have moods when I unlock the car the door doesn't want to unlocked however if I put the window down and open the door from the inside then it's fine.. and some times I have no issues what so ever it works perfectly fine? Any advise on what this could be? 

2. When I turn my steering wheel at stand still or very low speeds like reverse parking it seems to make a funny noise when I turn I'm not sure if it the steering rack? However on normal driving no issues or sound with it? Any one know what this may be ? 

Much appreciated! 

Thank you 

Hi Steve 

Thank your response.. I think tints would be the great option.. 

Thank you

Hi Steve 

Thank your response.. I have been looking at the original shades on eBay which are around £70-£80 as I don't want to get the cheap ones not worth it.. however tints will cost me the same aswell! So I'm kind of torn inbetween and not sure what to do! 

Do you have either one on your car? 

Thank you

Hello all! 

I am lookingfor window shades for my audi specially with a little one in the car and crazy heat and sun. Any suggestions on where to get some from good set or is it better tinting the windows? 

Thank you 

Thank you for the help I'll defo take a look into it 

Hi all

I seem to have a similar problem however it's the driver side passenger door the only one that doenst open i have to put the window down and open it from the inside once this is done then the car opens fine.. it just started quite randomly any suggestions ? 

The company is world renown and probly the only one I would trust where as they give warantee on their products and engine aswell! 

Remap scares me to many cowboys and not doing a proper job.. 

Have you had it done ? If so by whom and how do you find it? 

Thank you for your response 

I've just recently brought an Audi a4 2.7tdi and have been looking into race chip mod it cost around £450 all in is it worth it? I want to do it more for the MPG than the power as I feel the car has enough of it until I get use to it.

Anyone had it installed or has had their car repmapped? Please do let me know your thoughts and how things are if you have had it done 

Much appreciated 

So the cars in the same variant that have placeshift steering wheel come with a dsggear box is that correct ? 

I have seen some on YouTube that put a paddle shift steering wheel retro fitted however don't have much knkwlage of it at all 

I have an audi a4 b8 2.7tdi auto and it has a 4 spoke steering wheel. I would really like to upgrade it to a paddle shift one preferably a flat bottom is this possible to do. Can the paddle shift be programmed to change gears ? If so could you please point me out what would fit on the car! 

Thank you
