Hi there guys just wondering if anyone has done the software rollback for vehicles that had the "VW fix" as my car had fix done by previous owner. Seen a few companies online that do it but wanting to go to someone reputable as I'm sure there's a lot of cowboys out there. 

Most reputable tuners will roll back and map it. well worth the roll back and stage 1 map added. 

 

I have a map from More-BHP. Make sure you go with a known brand. @AMD87 will know of a good amount of tuners that will do it. 

 

Darkside. ADE. More-BHP. to name a few.

Thanks I see that they are only 50 miles away whereas Darkside and ADE are further up, do they offer dpf and EGR solutions? 

I believe they do. But best give them a call / email beforehand!

Yeah will do not in a rush got a few more jobs on the car to do before it's ready for map. Have you upgraded brakes on yours I find them to be terrible and the rear drums need attention on mine as they are making a squeeky noise. How hard is it to swap a vrs rear axle in?

I run stock breaks but have uprated braided break hoses. My rear drums have just been serviced and had new shoes fitted and cables.  

 

Upgrade your disks and pads to something reputable like EBC Yellow stuff or Ferodo. You can swap the rear axle in easily. just need to replace your hand-break cables.... but the break bias is so small you actually get a better breaking surface area out of a drum. But if you want to do track days they can head soak quickly. The hardest part is finding a VRS axle.

Yeah I'm probably gonna stick to stock then if not much benefit as its my daily driver anyway, can you send me the link to the braided brake hoses. My set ups going to probably be brembo discs and ebc pads, worth doing brake fluid as well at same time hope should improve slightly.

 

Thanks.

Both Ade and darkside will sort you out ive been using both of them for over 2 years now and I’m in Scotland. 
 

i swapped the ibiza axle on mine and put 256 rears not to help braking performance but because changing shoes annoyed me.
