Funny how many of us take a sneaky photo of our pride and joy in supermarket carparks... Thumbs Up . But I am wondering if in the UK that's just in case it's nicked whilst you're buying your bangers? Whistle


That was taken in Tescos in MK on the day I collected it from Urban last July, IIRC it was the only day the sun shone Rolling with laughter Cheers Simon

Interesting Ken. I'm actively looking for a 110DC and there seems to be a fairly equal split between 2.2 and 2.4 in my budget. Are you saying that dependent on which variant I get it should determine who does the map? If so, why? BTW, I'd have the map done by Alive at Urban or BAS..... Thumbs Up Monsieur Le Grenadier

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....

I take it that you guys are all aware that urban do not supply Gary's tunes anymore?

The tune you've had done won't be an Alive file it will have been written by someone else, presumably much cheaper than Alive that sells them to urban.

I had a conversation about this the other day with Gary and the last time he did for them was at the beginning of October 2015.

I'm sure the new tunes are good just don't feel it's fair for people to still think they're getting an Alive tune when they aren't.

I don't think they are selling them as Alive remaps presently. However, I bought my Urban Truck in July '15 and when I asked, I was told it was the Alive Remap. Even then it was not being sold as an Alive product, just an Urban performance upgrade IIRC.

bga86, I do not think anyone is pulling the wool over any bodies eyes, I cannot find any reference to Alive Tuning on their performance page.

http://www.urban-automotive.co.uk/#!performance/jtm84

In fact it clearly shows a different product.

Juudging by Petronius' thread they seem to have given him a cracking remap.

Simon if you would like to read my post again I didn't say they were miss leading anyone.

If you would also like to read the thread title 'Urban Truck Alive remap' you will see some people are under the illusion that Urban still supply Alive remaps, which they don't.

All I was doing is pointing this fact out as I'm sure a lot of people aren't aware of this.


As I have said I'm sure their new tunes are perfectly fine but people have the right to know what they are getting and who it comes from in my opinion Thumbs Up

Well, I'm sure the website and Urban will put them right, and no one will be mislead.

Any how it appears Petronius is more than happy with his remap, whom ever he thought it had come from.

My one is supersonic Thumbs Up Cheers Simon

Now done by Quantam Tuning. Apparently the UKs largest Remap specialist....no idea how good or if anyone has used them, but Urban say they have done many with no problems.

I can't comment, as I had the Alive remap. I'm sure they (Urban) would use a proven reputable company. They are very customer focused. Cheers Simon

Edited due to not wanting to provoke an argument.

I'm sure Pete, Ian or Gary will be along at some point to give their opinion on quantum
