Hi All,
Had my 2000 td5 in a local independant garage today for a re -map. They have told me that the ecu is the earlt type and cannot be re-flashed.
Do i need to have a new chip fitted and can anyone recommend any one near to me ( Preston ) or a mobile company.
Advice welcome
Cheers Damian

Best person to speak to is gary at TD5alive, he'll be able to sort you out! He made me a temporary ECU and posted it to me so that my car would still work while my ECU was being done!

ditto...your ECU has to have a tuned chip hard wired in the ECU, early ones cannot just be plugged in. (bummer-this would be much easier)
TD5 Alive (or Alive Tuning as they are now known) are the people to speak to
