You won't be dissapointed

I had my 530d Sport remapped by Stu and it was phenominal - absolutely mental for what it was and it went like a diesel shouldn't - felt so wrong doing 145+ in a diesel on the Autobhan going to the 'Ring last year

Funny you should say that, My Skoda Octavia TDi fuel computer started to massivly over-read after it was re-mapped, even though the guy who did it claimed it was fcuk all to do with it! Fuel consumption was actually about the same, but the computer would have you belive it was nearly 65mpg, as apposed to 50!

480 miles and still 60 miles on range on 1 tank not sure what size tank the 330d touring is but should think its about 60 litres ish ime sure some one will work it out

just checked tank size is 61 litres

so 540 miles will knock it down to 500 = 38 to the gallon so computer is pretty much spot on
