c350 cdi
Hello,

I am considering a remap (probably GAD as they are close by). I have had my car for a year and a half and soon after getting it the nature of it's use changed so it is used more for shorter journeys with occasional longer ones. I have had no problems with the DPF but feel I may be sailing close to the wind.

I was wondering if getting a remap would make the car more susceptible to DPF problems? I'm not interested in doing a delete.

Thanks, Bill.
 
what I have read, usually mapping should improve it, since engine runs slightly hotter (forget about 'economy' tuning effect :D ) when more power is taken. I think in GAD they can answer more precisely :)
 
Sorry, I'm not technical at all. Does the map mean that fuel isn't being used as efficiently as before and as such clog up the dpf?? Or is this just bad maps. Someone was telling me about smoke coming out of his car after a map.....is this just fuel caused by a bad map?
