Thanks mate :)

Was hoping for that answer haha! Main reason I ask is my van has only done 8800 miles, wasn't sure if I should 'bed' it in a bit more or not!

If it is still under warranty could remapping it cause any claim issues should you have say an EGR or injector problem?

I got mine done at 7000 miles and no issues to report apart from bald front tires at 10,000!! As far as warranty goes it's does void it, you will have to take it on the chin if it goes wrong.

But don't be worried because these new 2.0tdi-cr are well able for the extra power.

Sounds like you have super torque to your front tyres hehe, I'm prepared to risk my warranty, I've already added a new magic tree so it's probably already void (you know what they are like haha!) - they will certainly not approve a lot of other stuff thats going to be happening in the next few weeks anyway.

Thanks for the info mate - who did your map and what are your power gains like? :D

I got it done by Pendle, I don't know the torque figure as I'm away from the van at the min but the bhp went from 102bhp factory to 178.8bhp. I think it actually put out 111bhp on the standard map.

It's epic fun to drive now, its worth it alone to see the look on people's faces when this van just takes off from them :lol:

remap is a must for these engines, i run the 1.6 102 mapped to 145BHP and miss the 1,9/2,0tdi torque everyday. always down shifting in the 1.6 :(

Sorry for the slight hijack.
Just thought it saved a new thread!

If I got an ex british gas van with a speed limiter in the ECU. Would a remap remove this? Or would it need to be done separately?

British Gas used caddys since 2006 and in that time they have had at least 3 different speed limiters fitted.
If yours is in the ECU and your remapper knows how, then yes a remap will allow you to have it removed.
If your limiter is the add-on box type, hardwired to your accelerator pedal, then a remap will not remove this.

I got my 11 plate ex British gas remapped and speed limiter removed (on the ecu) at the same time.

A remap will remove it and also you can with vagcom. You can't remove it but you can raise out of the vans capabilities. So depends on if you want the extra power or not.

Thanks for your reply.
If I was putting it in for the limter to be removed/adjusted, I would probably get it all done at the same time. I would never say no to more power :D
