I ordered the on on the link, blue something? I don't care if it makes it slower as long as it improves the fuel consumption :wink:

I have to say I'd still rather go for a re map, although each to their own I suppose.

I've a remapped C5 3.0hdi, 300 bhp, 460flbt and I had to boot it from Bournemouth to Reading and back today, in the rain and wind, really going for it and it still returned 36mpg which I calculated from my fill up rather than using the trip computer.

Been really impressed with this engine, when driven sedately, it's returning over 41mpg easily,....

So each to their own, you pay a good price and get a decent remap, you'll get the best of both the performance and economy,...

I only paid £300.00 for the car so much as I would like a remap it seems a bit excessive. If I can't get a decent fuel consumption with the box I will sell it and get a 2.0L.

41MPG from the 3.0HDi is excellent! 8-)

Im very tempted to get mine remapped, should see it nicely to around 170ishBHP and so similar performance to the later 2.2HDi 173 but with improved fuel economy.
