You should trade the Fabia in for an Octavia Dave, then you'll say goodbye to most things on the road :P

Or an LCR, and have 8bhp more and still not running right. :P

Don't be dissapointed by what you got. It was what I would have expected. None of these 180-195 claims. Anything around 165hp is about right.

It's done 171 on two occasions before and I have had the map changed to give a little more.

There are issues somewhere :(

Why would he want to go slower. :P

Seriously though. Has something happened to your car overnight as it's not running right. Cos when you left a certain place in Kent you couldn't stop smiling and saying how spectacularly good it was.

What has suddenly changed?

Has it gone into limp mod?

Have you lost any power from when you had it mapped?

Is it misfiring?

Can you feel any differance in the cars performance?

or an octavia 4x4 with a further 6bhp and 30lbft whilst in the midst of creating a 007 style smoke cloud :D

really should get my oil burning issue sorted some how.

All the AMD mapped PD130's look about right numbers wise. REVO a little low as they are normaly around the 170 mark but as stu says it was just put on.

Dont understand why mappers always give the PD130 such big torque numbers low down the rev range. No wonder clutches dont last.

Yeah the Octavia II is a nice car - you've kept yours quiet havn't you?! I wouldn't really want another Skoda though.

:offtopic: (sorry)

A few days after coming home from work, The car went into Limp Mode,

It's misfiring and the dump valve was chattering. (I presume leaking boost)

I've now changed the spring in my dump valve, and the boost seems to be held better now, its smoother and gear changes are more pleasant. A spring had a bit effect, so I think the car is running better now and feels quicker.

I read up on the N249 Fault code which was logged, and it has something to do with the dump valve no operating properly. When I went to change the spring, I noticed to O-rings around the dump valve, weren't in there places. Which I also presume this had something to do with it.

I just need to get that rev thing sorted out and the car is back to running well (apart from lean.)

It's only gone into limp mode once though :confused: and that wasn't hard driving at all.

Have you been in contact with Mike, see if he can sort some of the problems out.

Been working since I got back from the RR. I'm off next week, so will give him a ring during the week. See what he can do.
