Hi,
After trying different marques out, I've gone and bought myself a Leon FR TDI. Saw it by chance on the bay and took a punt. Cars done 133k miles but is mechanically sound. No receipt for injectors, but there is one for the injector loom replaced last year, as well as a cam belt/waterpump change, DPF removal and apparently a "remap".
I have not noticed any smoke yet I have some questions which are sort of on my mind;
1. How can I tell the DPF is removed? The DPF light comes on on ignition but goes off straight away. Hasn't ever come on when driving.
2. To me I can't tell if the car is mapped or not. It pulls very smoothly and there is torque, but it doesn't pull you back in the seat like my friends pd140 does (which isn't mapped). I checked the boost psi with the torque app, it peaks at 23ishpsi at 2k just for a second then drops down to 22psi at tail 3k and then drops down to 21psi till 4k. Not sure if this is normal, plus there is sometimes the 'stutter' I've read of.
I'm thinking of getting it on the rollers, and if it isn't mapped just getting a bluefin on it. Would they need to code dpf removal in the map? As if I take off this 'map' if it is 'mapped' then could it possibly cause the dpf to go funny if it has been mapped out?
Any advice appreciated.
