Stage 1 remapping in Morecambe
Within 4 km of Morecambe are Heysham and Lancaster, at 2.6 km and 3.7 km. The next places in our data, Ulverston and Fleetwood, are more than five times as far, at 20.8 km and 20.9 km. So a drive from Morecambe tends to be either a short trip to one of those two neighbours or a much longer run beyond them. A diesel that does both benefits from Stage 1 remapping in two ways: cleaner pulling away around town, and on the longer runs, more torque for overtaking with fewer downshifts. Both come from a software change to fuel, boost and timing, kept inside the engine's limits.
