318D/320D Re- Mapping

alzieboy · 03-26-2013, 12:44 PM

Apart from the obvious difference in BHP/Torque, are there any other major differences between the two Models, Turbos/ Brakes etc, that would have to be taken into consideration when thinking about remapping a 318D, have been Quoted an increase of around 43 bhp on a remap for a 318D LCI

Cheers

If its the same as the 118d/120d (143/177 bhp) models then the gearing on the 118d is a bit longer which contributes to the better MPG.

Road tax might be a bit less on the 18d too. I think the turbo was different but the brakes are the same. Again, it was certainly the case on the LCI 1 series cars.
