This is the start of a thread
Hi. I am fairly new to the site but it hasbeen a wealth of imformation in helping by my GTI and now hopefully to help me unleash its true potential. I am looking into a remap for standard manual GTI. The offer by JKM for £390 looks ridiculously tempting but i have a couple of concerns. The website states "Not for use on CAWB, CBFA or CCTA engine codes as per the YR 2008 TSI engine". How do i find out my engine code as i have an 08 GTI. Also i understand the bluefin completely rewrites the ecu everytime its uploaded or downloaded (put back to standard map for servicing). Would this have a detrimental effect over time with the map keep changing as in a pc when you copy over something on the hard drive the original file is never truely erased. Would i be better with the Revo where both maps are stored on ecu and can switch between the two. Your opinions are extremely sought after.
p.s. I didn't have any snags with my car until i started researching older posts, now familiar problems are starting to occur. Sometimes ignorance is bliss :innocent

Look in the service schedule manual (1.1) it tells you the engine code on the label stuck inside the facing cover.
Failing that look on your V5 document. :smiley:

I think your GTi should be a BWA engine. The Cxxx ones are the new TSi ones as used in the rocco etc.

I have the same problem, it says on the website for a GTI 2006 onwards! Would it be okay on my 05?

Mines on a 05 gti and it's fine!
