Should you remap your car? (530D N57) - At The Wheel 

owning a 2016 f10 530d remapped at 320hp, with 200k km. Works like a charm

Hi! I got F31 N57D30 with remap to 342hp/700Nm (DPF and EGR still works). Car works perfectly.. Im on highways almost every day, so torgue is really helpful at 150km/h+ speeds. With remap i got 60.000km. Cars mileage is 240k. I think its only about owner- change oil with filters every 15.000km, push it to the limit only with heated oil and of course turn off Start/stop system.. For sure i changing oil in ZF every 60.000km..

I have an remaped 530d 2017 300 hp and 700nm and its great fun to drive.

This extra gain in torque put massive stress and damages the transmission. I've learn this the hard way.

Recently I've bought F10 535D from US (which is EU's 530D single twinscroll turbo 3.0L diesel - same as here). Got it remapped professionally - multiple dyno runs, log analysis etc. (both the engine, TCU, speed limit removal etc.). The result? 316HP with 630Nm and significant acceleration gain. Paid 400 pounds for it in Poland as of today's money. Took almost 4 hours to complete.

I'm not convinced about the increased power AND fuel economy claim. Manufacturers compete with each other and try really hard to deliver both fuel economy and performance. They struggle these days to meet the emissions standards hence the VW cheat box. If there was a way to increase power and mpg just by changing the s software I'm pretty sure they would know about it, they will have a huge team with fancy computer simulations and testing facilities. I know they sometimes use software to limit power so you if you want more power then you have to buy the more expensive sport version of the same thing. I've also heard that a remap can mess with the trip computer so it over estimates mpg, maybe it doesn't realise that more fuel is in fact being dumped into the engine....?

I just bought a 2018 A6 3.0TFSI (supercharged; not turbo). Do you know if remapping will improve fuel mileage in this car? The car is still under factory warranty. Would remapping void the factory warranty? Your videos are good. I wish you good luck as you get more views and subscribers.

Hi can I get the details of the man who did remapped for you thanks

Before watching, safe tune with before and after dyno: YES! Cowboy limited coming to you to mess with your boost pressure on your driveway: NO! Pop and bang, launch control, etc NO-NO! Ebay ODB chip tune box: NO oh god please NO! Also this Bring My Wallet already had enough problem. Why on earth the owner bagging for more? 😅 At a proper place, they doing racecar prep, before and after dyno print out they quoted me £300 (Also can change the ECU on a phone app between original, tuning, eco)

This guy looks 17 but sounds like he's 45

Thought you were guna drive it Harry Potter

What worries me is the tolerances of things such as the fly wheel. Ive been offered a tune taking torque from 330nm to 450nm. Thats 40nm over the max load and that cant be good for longevity can it!

You should do f11 review in general after owning it for some time. pros and cons.

350-400 hp is no problem as long as you upgrade the cooling system (bigger intercooler) & limit the torque in lower gears. You can install the alpina transmission software. The D5 biturbo has the same block

I’ve got the F11 530d - stage 1 map giving me 316bhp and 620Nm - economy is better for sure - I’ve gone from Calais to the Dolomites in north east Italy on 1 tank - can’t complain about that and super comfy too

sounds great bro new sub from me great bit of content nice channel bro

I got the f10 535d was looking at quantum tuning to do a remap any advice ?

E60 530i msport LCI . N53 engine. Who here has the same car as mine and has been remapped? 🤔

I've book to get my new Ford focus ST Line X 1.0 125bhp next week to 150bhp. But after watching a few videos on here I'm actually terrified now in going ahead with it. Worried it will screw up my car that I just got two weeks ago which is 2019 reg and then I'll be left with finance to pay for a car I don't have or can't use. Any advice would be great.

Considering remapping my 1.0t hyundai I20 but not sure in terms of long term reliability I imagine it will be fine but wanted to know of anyone else's long term experience of remaps?
