We've had the 2007 CLK 220CDI auto for a few months now and it impresses in all aspects for our use but if it were easily achieved a little more power would not go amiss. I've looked at the power to weight of other similar cars we've owned and reckon taking it up to 175-180BHP with an associated torque increase would do the trick.
I've searched dozens of pages in the tuning forum and not found one so far where the owner of a similar engine car has undertaken this and reported on the results.
My queries are....
Is a remap possible on our engine type?
Is up to 180bhp possible/sensible?
Does the remap alter any of the auto gearchange parameters?
Is our 5spd autobox fitted to any higher powered models?
Most important any real life experience of this engine type after a remap?
BTW we're close to Peterborough so the nearest place to us I've noticed in forum posts that others seem to approve of is GAD at Burnham.
Any thoughts much appreciated.
