Guys looking for a bit of advice and opinions. Have a 1.9TDi 2002 110bhp with 170k miles and rising. Car is used as a taxi so can imagine miles are going to be racked up. Question is this is it worth getting a remap? i've looked on webs and figures quoted are extra 30bhp plus torque but cant remember this figure. spoke to some people some say its not worth it mpg will drop dramatically etc. couple of companies up here who do it say yes you'll get more power when needed and mpg will increase depending on how its driven. Been quoted around £250 for it. Also had one mechanic saying that the engine cant take the remap (its not the pd engine but the old style with injectors on the outside??) Also use the car to tow a folding camper so the extra torque would be handy.

Hi mate and welcome along, tbh I wouldn't bother with that many miles on the clock. If your engine can be remapped then you should see an increase in mpg, but with more power comes a heavy foot and the noisy pedal will find itself pressed just a wee bit harder, thus cancelling out any increase in fuel economy.

The figures you mention are about right for the 105 PD engine so probably similar on yours, around 35-40 bhp and 50-60 torque, which would be excellent for towing as well!
