Hi John, glad it's hopefully sorted now🤞. I read a lot of the comments on the last post about Carly. I use the AlfaOBD for my 2018 Ducato, it only works once after disconnecting and reconnecting the battery though. I think this is possibly due to the security gateway Fiat added in 2018. I'd be interested in knowing what year your van is? Cheers Rich

An informative review. I have two questions that I hope you can answer: 1) Would it cope with a 20° incline? 2) Is there some sort of walk assistance, for those occasions when a hill climb is too much for me?
@GadgetJohn9 сағат бұрын
It does have walk assist and it’d make it up a steep hill imho as I’ve ridden the smaller version up & over loads of mountains, including stelvio pass, but you’ve got to be peddling and putting in the power yourself to get the electrical assistance too.

Hi John. Mine has arrived and I have unlocked the speed but it still appears limited to 25kmh on the throttle, any idea what I'm doing wrong? Cheerrs
@GadgetJohn2 күн бұрын
It took a couple of goes when I did it. Turn it off, press the left brake lever whilst powering it on, keep the brake lever pressed for 10 seconds and then let go. Power it off and then when you power it back on it should be unlocked.

Thanks for this video John… I have also been stumped by my 19 plate Fiat Ducato loss of power during low revs. I don’t have adblue or had any warning lights on the dash, but the loss of power usually comes at a critical moment… I’ve not had a remap but it’s been on my list for ages, so after watching this I think it might be a good idea to check it out. I’m not a million miles away from the guy who’s done yours so may give him a call soon. Thanks 👍

Remaps are risky. If they worked, the manufacturer would offer it. ie Volvo with their Polestar remap. I think you’ll find remapping invalidates your insurance

AD-blue errors on my Peugeot 1,6HDi was diagnosed at a third party and they came up with the conclusion that nothing was faulty expect Stelantis buggy engine controlling software. One engine control software update later at the dealership everything works fine again. I assume a lot of ad blue deletes are done due to this which is a shame for the environment if it is just a (free) bug fix away from working.

They are well renowned around Barnsley...and car enthusiasts in general... for doing 💩 remaps! I know a Tech that was constantly being called out by them to put right their mistakes... "bricked" ECU's being the main one because of the totally 💩 remaps they use! There's also been quite a few reports locally of blown up engines as well....mainly the boy racers wanting a balls out smoke and power overfuelling "remap"....which sounds like the map they put on yours....all top end with very little midrage! At least you found someone who knows what he's doing, and an increase in power midrange, is more suitable for a van. 👍

Glad you got it sorted. I wonder if the (old) remap was okay on a non-AdBlue vehicle? At my brothers work half of their fleet of straddle cranes have AdBlue, they are nothing but trouble, fault code bingo specials - same engine, just the AdBlue different.

The adblue is a process applied post combustion, just a liquid spray injected into the exhaust, so the remap wouldn’t be affected by it.

The engine as standard produces 97 hp, the manufacturer then adjusts the output depending on the vehicle the engine is fitted to, in my case the 130 hp based on a 3.5t van but my van only weighs 2.9t so adding 50 hp doesn’t meant I’m adding additional stress to my van. It’s worth researching Remap’s & original engine design tolerances, you’ll see every engine is designed to be adjusted this way.
