Old(ish) member, another A2

Hedge

A2OC Donor
Evening all,

Bought my first A2 seven odd years ago; that one is now going to my son. Getting another tommoz; an 05 plate TDi (75) SE with 62k & 1 former lady owner. Has a few toys on it: OSS, BOSE, rear electric windows, Sport wheel/ knob & seats, electric lumbar thingy, 6 CD changer, leather/ velour seats etc.

I'll get it Stealth'd first & go from there. Needs pepper pots, me thinks..

Nice to be back in an A2, tbh. I'd farmed the old one out to a friend for a while. Fab little things, all told.

Cheers,

have you considered my remaps - no pressure just making you aware of alternatives. do a search for 'Depronman remap'
I offer an ECU Loan service whilst your own ECU is being remapped

Welcome back to A2 ownership, you new it was going to happen didn't you :)
Cheers Paul (AKA Depronman)
 
Surprisingly good spec for an 05, thought they were all Special Edition on 05 which was lower spec than SE. Good find, welcome back. :)

No, you can get higher specced '05 cars, but you needed to pay pretty much through the nose when initially purchasing.
 
It has the computer thingy as well, just remembered. Plus rear parking sensors. Getting it later, anyway.

Your option vs the Stealth one is tempting; what's the difference between the two? Other than the huge differential in price, that is.

Just the price from what I have been told by A2OC members which have had both a Stealth remap and one of my remaps
If there is any difference it is Very small
A few weeks ago I was fitting cruise control for a member who as an AMF engined A2 and it was remapped by stealth about 3 years ago. I had a drive of the A2 and was expecting it to be better than my remap however it wasn’t (no better but no worse)
I asked the owner if I could fit my loan ecu and do a back to back road test which we did I drove it for about five miles and the owner drove it back neither of us could tell which ecu was in the car
He was slightly miffed that he had paid £350 for the stealth remap when he could have had the same results for £25
Cheers Paul

You say there is no noticeable difference in performance, is there any difference out of the exhaust ? I've had maps done on other VAGs and while the performance has been similar the amount of black fog has been variable.
 
I have never seen anything out of the Exhaust on the A2 even when under heavy acceleration, I do not alter the smoke limit map in the remap, therefore it will be the same Exhaust particular matter as Audi's map

I whole heartedly agree. Best thing I did on ours with 185/60/15 winters. Much nicer ride and massive improvement in economy. The pepper pots are sooooo light.

I have only just had mine back after my daughter had a "borrow" for 3.5 years.
