VW ECU Reflash

[edition_30]

I’m thinking of going to vw to see if they will reflash my car with oem map...  originally i thought i may have had a little clutch slip but that seems not to be the case now as it’s happening too low down the rev range (1.3 - 2k rpm).

Do I simply just ask for an ecu update?

Also does the ecu log a date when a new map is applied?

I think you have to pay £ 60 or so for a fault diagnosis, or reflash

thanks mate.. im getting a service done next month.. do you think it would be included in the service.. also do you think they may ask questions into why i want the ecu re flashed.. im kinda hoping i can get extended warranty on the car

They should defo reflash in the service, you could just make up a little fault so they would check at that time.
I would wait until then. Do you not know anyone near you  with a select + switch who can put revo's stock settings back on to see if that cures it while your waiting for the service.

not sure mate.. will start a thread.. in terms of issues any ideas what i could suggest?

[Top Cat]

You could just say the exhaust light came on. 

Have you had a look in the VCDS area of the forum for people with select switches near you.
