Not on the Puma.
I had the exhaust manifold warp on my Disco2 Td5 after I got it remapped, but that was a common issue on the Td5. -- 2010 Defender Puma 90 + BAS remap + Alive IC + Slickshift + Ashcroft ATB rear 2015 Range Rover Sport V8 Supercharged Defender Puma Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zZ1en9 Discovery 4 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zXrtKO Range Rover/Sport L320/L322/L494 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zc58JQ |

I was about to email you Naks....
I also hadnt heard of this happening on a Puma and did experience it on my TD5 which was not remapped. P.s. I took the plunge and ordered an Atric......... and its mostly your fault (and Regards)....now I have to wait. |

Nice, I'm sure you won't regret it. Gary knows what he's doing. Combined with your bigger intercooler, your landy will run like bomb! -- 2010 Defender Puma 90 + BAS remap + Alive IC + Slickshift + Ashcroft ATB rear 2015 Range Rover Sport V8 Supercharged Defender Puma Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zZ1en9 Discovery 4 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zXrtKO Range Rover/Sport L320/L322/L494 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zc58JQ |

Thank you Pete. This is exactly what I thought and to be honest half the reason I didnt choose the cheaper option and go local......

Problems......?........keeping my right foot of the accelerator
None so far. My car just started to use water 4 months after my remap and I was stressed as hell. After multiple compression tests and coolant contamination tests by the dealers I was reasured that it was only my header tank cap that was leaking. A new tank and cap and 10 000km later my car has not used a drop of coolant again. So I think it is safe to say it was completely coinsidental. |

Has anyone noticed if their ( don't laugh ) injectors seem noisy after a remap. Well I think it's injector noise. I have always presumed its down to the quality of fuel needing to be higher after a remap, but I would love someone to correct me as I really don't know. I guess I ought to treat it to a tank full of BP Ultimate or similar to find out.
As always your wisdom would be appreciated. |

As far as problems go I expect more tyre wear & brake wear would be about all you'd expect and maybe chutches too. Other than that. I don't think in standard tune they are exactly slow anyway.. $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R

Yep, there is a bit of extra noise, but that's normal. 2SO definitely quietens things down -- 2010 Defender Puma 90 + BAS remap + Alive IC + Slickshift + Ashcroft ATB rear 2015 Range Rover Sport V8 Supercharged Defender Puma Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zZ1en9 Discovery 4 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zXrtKO Range Rover/Sport L320/L322/L494 Workshop Manual: https://bit.ly/2zc58JQ |
