C250 tuning

[Paulhick]

Afternoon folks. Am new to the forum and enjoying having a read. I have a 2014 c250 and wondered if there was any tuning options to get more out of the engine than the standard 200ish hp?

 

[OneForTheRoad]

A remap would see approx 34 BHP. And 90 nm of torque.

Hi Paul,

I got my C250 w204 coupe remapped last week by A1 Remapping in Hull and the results have been superb! A lot more power and mpg always above 43, usually around 50.

They do custom remaps and I believe the file from my car originally came from someone in Belgium and was then tweaked again by the A1 team.

Whoever you choose to go with - I’m sure won’t be disappointed with the gains. It’ll feel like a whole new car!

Good Luck!

What sort of power gain did you get?

Is this the W205 250d Diesel OM651? Or the W204 250 CGI petrol M271?

C204.

 

[markjay]

C204.

If it's the M271 engine, then check the timing gear before spending any money on tuning, it's a known weak point. If it's worn get it changed first.

 

[Gazwould]

OP , M271 or OM651 ?

 

[Paulhick]

Not a clue.......

 

[Petrol Pete]

Paul. Do not spend one penny on tuning that car until you determine whether it has an M271 engine or not.

 

[Paulhick]

Real stupid question but how do you find out?

 

[Petrol Pete]

Post the VIN number on here and you will soon know.

 

[Paulhick]

Will take a butchers when I get back.

 

[Gazwould]

Quite simple , is it a diesel or petrol ?

 

[Paulhick]

Diesel c250 2015 model just before the new one was released.

 

[Gazwould]

Cool , it only took 17 posts .

Do you have the lovely drive by wire throttle delay ?

 

[Paulhick]

Only very very slight kickdown delay and even that is only when in eco mode.

 

[Gazwould]

More so pulling out of junctions .
