ECU flash for TDi Jetta

[Brendan_A]

I'm thinking of doing a ECU flash on my TDi Jetta and want to know what you guys recommend and what are the pros and cons of doing it? I do have a few questions. Do I lose my manufactures warranty? What is a good brand to go with and does it get rid of the delay when you take off from a standstill with the DSG?

It will void your manufacturers warranty.

It probably wont fix the delay as all automatic cars have the initial lag, but it will pick up and move quicker when you do get rolling.

Oettinger do a reprogram for the TDI engine.
Just google your car and ecu/chip and you will find heaps of info.

This will be relevant to you:

It will void your manufacturers warranty.

Depending on what you're claiming under warrantly. If your window regulators break, they can't refuse repair because you've had the engine remapped, and so on.

I've had it done and love it! I don't thrash my car, but it's definitely got more kick now

officially it voids your warranty but most dealers can't find the chip unless there really looking for it.
GIAC also sell a TDi flash if your interested, and a DSG flash but im unsure what it does for take off lag

Have you had any problems with the engine and drive line since having the flash done and how many kms on your Jetta?
