Good afternoon MBOers!!!!

Yesterday we had the pleasure of tuning another 350 CDI Lump to unleash the awesome potential from an awesome vehicle!!!

Tune time took around 3 hours and went as smoothly as ever (read time was up a little due to software update variation) and the car flies!!!

We used our completely solder free system to ensure communication to the vehicle with no issues what's so ever and then made our modifications.

Standard: GAD Tuned:

265 BHP 315 BHP

620 NM 750 NM

Will be interested to hear the owner's thoughts and whether he intends to have the DPF removal/EGR disable work done once a solution is found.

This is correct once the solution is complete we now have an ever-growing list of clients requiring DPF Removal and EGR disable or course clients of GAD will benefit from a discount as soon as we release the upgrade.

If I buy my friends 212 diesel with 13k miles with every possible toy I will have it tuned, I need to spend some money

Hi Anthony (GAD)
I have a late 2007 CLK 280 with 31000 miles on the clock, do you think it is worthwhile having it remapped? I read on another site that you can only get another 10-11 bhp? That works out to about a 5% increase. Would I notice any difference?

you would also need to use it more than you seem to use the volvo recently!!!
it would be perfect for those long distance trips across europe you used to do though!

That is the problem Pete,,, the 140 has been 2 miles in this last 8 months, the V70R 422 miles and the CL216 10k miles. I just do not know if Lilian will be up to any more trips

Hi Anthony (GAD)

Unfortunately not a great deal! Something that Scoob introduced us to the other day was the bum dyno! That feeling of swelling torque you get, unfortunately your vehicle would not give you much more real world figures or anything more in the bum dyno department!

That car looks familiar, remarkably like mine in fact... :)

Not really had much of an opportunity to play as yet. Though the drive back that day was long, there was some very heavy traffic so I ended up just pottering for the most part, with the odd little blip every so often.

Car does feel more responsive and somehow smoother, this lends its self to both making progress as well as a feeling of refinement when pottering as I was for the most part.

Had to pop out for fuel today, again pottering (traffic) with the odd little blip & over-take. Despite this driving, and the hilly area in which I live, I still saw 46mpg+ over about 25 miles or so - I sorta went the pretty way to get my fuel lol.

Need to drive into and around Reading tomorrow (urgh) so we'll see how she drives & what economy I get then.

Oh yeah, I'm very HAPPY with the work done. Anthony and Gary, who were there on the day, are both great guys and we had some interesting conversations about all sorts of tuning related stuff - very much a car nerd moment for me lol.

Sorry, really quite pooped today, but I will comment further.

Scoob.

Scoob, are you planning to get the DPF removal/EGR disable work done at some point - obviously when GAD have a solution?
