I mentioned this a year ago with the Mini barracuda (?) product that I think Supachips market. With manufacturers over writing chips on a regular basis it would seem a cheaper idea for the chipping companies too.

A dealer can indeed overwrite a tuned ecu but it's very very unlikely...and we would happily re upgrade an ecu free of charge if this happened

It's not going to be unlikely when LR initiate their vehicle recall program to get all Landies upgraded with the latest software fixes etc.

Anyone got a copy of the 'official recall' document form LR?

Apparently it's and 'as and when' software upgrade and many delears are simply not bothering.

Have just returned from a trip to Le Mans in a JE chipped RRS. I have to say, performance and driveability were both excellent. Definitely on the must have list for the new Disco when it arrives.

Hi,
It''s my car and it was upgraded via the ODB.
The software was overwritten recently by the LR dealer during a factory software upgrade and JE re-installed their upgrade the next day free of charge, no questions asked.
I've also had their stainless steel exhaust fitted, which is superb and even sounds like a V8 now Very Happy

JE,

Don't waste your breath Wink

You really should consider advertising on both this and RRSPORT.CO.UK, you will then be able to counter any of the silly comments made by some other parties and promote your products for what they are i.e. the best available Very Happy

So I wonder why Stratstone Land Rover (biggest dealer group in the UK) has chosen to go with Turbochip as their 'in house tuner' ?

600 TDV6's so far...come on JE.....catch up Smile
