for those of us not familier with the diesels, could you fill us in on what you have had done?
Impressive numbers by the way!
Some of you guys might be interested,on the weekend, I put my Tdi with the Revo reflash on the dyno, I was quite happy with the results, I don't have a scanner so i can't put up the graph, I managed 119.5kw atw and 337.5 n.m.
There was a stock standard 2.0 tdi jetta and that manged 90kw atw
for those of us not familier with the diesels, could you fill us in on what you have had done?

a chip upgrade - thats what it sounds like to me...
'07 Touareg V6 TDI with air suspension
'98 Mk3 Cabriolet 2.0 8V
'99 A4 Quattro 1.8T
haha, yeah, now i see it, where it says with the Revo reflash
that would boot along i recon.
Who did the Revo flash for you?
Vw Village at kensigton? are one of the Revo dealers, there is also one in parramatta and another place opening up
I've had the REVO done to my Polo TDI and was really impressed by the results.
The best thing about the REVO though, is the fact that it's just a software reflash through VAG-COM and no installation is necessary and no parts are fitted to the vehicle. This means the dealers have absolutely no way of seeing a chip installed, yet are baffled to find the power so high. One dealer told me that he he would need a hexidecimal decoder something to find that the system had been altered.
The only tell-tale sign of REVO installation is an electronics fault on VAG-COM but after about 50km of driving the fault code goes away on it's own.
You can also purchase one of these:
It's a switch to turn the REVO on and off at your discretion but you have to pay extra for the unit.

Hi mate
Vag-com in advance feature screen will show up: PROGRAMMING ATTEMPTS - and how many.
So, dealer will not tell you that they found anything, because they don't need to, when you came for service. But could certainly use it against you to void the warranty should there be any engine failure related to increased power output from engine.![]()
