Diagnositics, remaps and DPF removal

Just about everything on a modern car is computer controlled these days, from the engine to the rear boot lock. These electronic systems are supposed to make life a little easier which is wonderful, until they go wrong. The dash boards lights up with warning symbols and alarms, and there's no way of knowing whether the ash tray needs emptying or the engine's on fire. We have in house facilities for diagnostics on most vehicles. This may range for an MoT emissions failure through to a full data stream inspection prior to remapping. Our technicians are trained in data aquisition and processing and will help make sense of the confusing world of vehicle computers. This applies to just about every make and model of car.

In the ever advancing world of computers the requirements for specialist equipment changes every day. As does the need to use that equipment in a professional manner to provide the best customer service. To help satisfy the needs of our customers we now out source our remapping service to Rapid Remap (see links page). These guys specialise in remapping and can provide the service that our customers deserve. With manufacturers constantly working to prevent easy access to their precious ECU's there are so many cars that can't simply be plugged into and reprogrammed. It takes an expert touch and the guys at Rapid Remap can provide it.

We also work with Rapid Remap for DPF removal. DPF's, or Diesel Particulate Filters and the latest in emissions controls for diesel cars. They are soot filters which collect soot particles when driving around town. Then, when out on the open road and up to pre-set temperatures burn the soot off and clear the filter. The theory is great but they can have a life span as short as 30,000 miles and cost as much as three thousand pounds to replace at the dealer. We can manufacture a bypass pipe for most cars which removes the DPF once and for all allowing greater gas flow and better performance. The car will detect the DPF has been removed though and limit the engines power through the electronics. The car then goes to our friends at Rapid Remap who work their magic and remove the DPF programming. Usually for a tiny fraction the cost of a single DPF replacement we can remove so it need never be a concern again.
