Stage 1 remapping in Dunfermline
Motorway access is part of the Dunfermline road picture: the M90 and the A823(M) are both on the list, alongside A roads such as the A92, A907 and A985. For a diesel that regularly uses the M90, Stage 1 remapping is mostly about mid-range pull: getting up to speed on a slip road and passing slower traffic with less effort. The remap changes fuel, boost and timing in software, within the engine's limits, and nothing is bolted on. Any change in fuel use is modest and depends on your driving. Before a remap, a vehicle showing a fault, such as a DPF, EGR or injector problem, needs to be repaired.
