2010 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 USW Stornoway Grey

Just use Parallels or Boot Camp (I use the former, with no problems).

Simples!

2010 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 SW Alpine White

Just a note on my personal experience with the BAS remap:

I switched the map to the standard tune with only EGR-shut before our trip to Namibia. 6000km later, I returned it to the standard map for a dealer visit.

The EGR self-cleaning cycle now sounds like a cat in a blender, and the dealer has found a fault code relating to an assembly pipe in the EGR which will need to be replaced.

Other than that, the EGR-shut has a tremendous effect on consumption, our trip returning an average of 10.4l/100km - and that was with a 500kg load in the back

This is a followup note - since I switched to the tuned map, I am noticing coolant loss. I will monitor and report further. --

Naks, the EGR is cooled, so there could be an issue with the EGR itself - if it's bleeding coolant, you are unlikely to see it as it'll just be vapourising through the exhaust system. In other words it may have nothing to do with the mapping at all.

Ah, did not know the EGR is cooled. On the standard map and the standard EGR-shut maps there is no coolant loss.

I suppose the average EGTs are higher when I'm running the tuned map... --

Hey Guy's

I had sent over a AlliSport Intercooler and Bell Auto Services remap device.

Firstly I want to say how happy I am with the service and products that I received from both Pete and Andrew - Thanks heaps guys...

I install both items yesterday and sent the standard map back Pete Bell, the tuned map was returned via E-Mail in no time flat and now it is installed.

Only had a quick drive this afternoon, but - first impressions "WOW"

The motor has been so freed up it is hard to believe that it is the same engine.

Power develops immediately in the low gears and is very smooth but will come on strong if the pedal is pushed down. I have only been to 3000rpm's and that is plenty.

Can’t wait to do some km's over the long weekend here in Aus and get a better idea of the power gains and fuel consumption.

Cheers
Grant
