- W212 e350 Sport Wagon, Pano Roof, Nav 20, Ambient Lighting, Power Mirrors/ Tail, Remap to 275bhp
Had my car remapped three days again, and was told i would not be wowed until the car had done around 60 miles. This is because the ECU had been reset, and therefore the car needed time to learn the optimal setting again.
I was slightly dubious I have to say, but it seems to be the case, and the car is suddenly more explosive. The rolling road wasn't available at the time and he did an eco blend map so the bhp will be a "conservative" 275 (was a 235 version), but it is pretty blooming fast now. Interesting before the remap the turbo gave a very faint whistle when being pushed which is completely gone post remap.
Interestingly after I did the remap I noticed overtaking from 70 to pass someone felt more sluggish than before, but yesterday trying the same thing there was a slight delay and then the turbo kicked in and whoosh! I guess before the turbo wasn't kicking in.
Its all slightly subjective with maps I appreciate, but I "think" there has been a 60 mile change.
Anyone care to explain?
