TDI models respond well to a Stage 1 remap, particularly the A3 and A4 2.0 TDI range.

Golf and Passat TDI models are among the most common cars we remap, with a well understood and predictable process.

Fiesta EcoBoost and Focus TDCi both take a Stage 1 map well, with a noticeable difference in everyday driving.

C-Class and E-Class diesel models are common candidates, subject to the usual suitability check.

Astra and Insignia CDTi engines are frequent visitors for Stage 1 work.

Discovery Sport and similar TD4 models benefit from smoother low-down torque delivery, useful for towing as well as daily driving.

Octavia TDI shares its platform with the VW Golf, so the process is very similar.

Qashqai dCi models are one of the most common cars on our books for Stage 1 remapping.

Diesel models like the Avensis D-4D respond well to a Stage 1 map, though hybrids need a suitability check first given their added complexity.
