Re: Remap after a dpf removal
I'm sure he means he's gutted the dpf . Perhaps but even that will be an issue in the future and rightly so. Sorry, I shouldn't have commented really. I have a bee in my bonnet about DPF removal. I get that they are problematic if not used properly and there are benefits of removal but as an asthma...

Re: Which fuel for my Passat B5.5?
Regular Esso or Jet diesel with a splash of Millers or similar. Thanks for your quick reply! Sorry, I'm a bit of a novice at this, but would Millers make a big difference? Is it worth me going out and getting it? To be honest I have never noticed and real difference in drivability and only small di...

Sometimes yes, sometimes no, depends on your skill as a driver and how obsessive you are. Ususlly though, yes. If you can really be bothered hypermiling can beat cruise logic but its not worth the hassle. Good luck expending 3x the effort for 0.5 mpg gain, see you asleep at the wheel wrapped in a c...
