Remapping across Wigan
Not sure a remap is right for your engine? Our Wigan visits start with the fault codes and a backup of the original software, so you know where things stand before the map changes. Every engine remap is £275 + VAT, carried out at home or at work.
What we check before remapping in Wigan
Codes read on arrival
We look for stored faults in the ECU, as a remap won't fix an engine that's already struggling.
Original software backed up
Your car's factory map is read and saved before any new file goes near it.
The right map written
Stage 1, Stage 2, economy or van, chosen around how the vehicle is used.
Codes rechecked at handover
We run the engine, make sure no new faults have appeared, and talk you through the result.
Finding the remap that fits your daily use
If your car is standard, a Stage 1 remap is the sensible starting point. Owners who've already fitted a better intercooler, intake or exhaust should look at a Stage 2 remap instead.
Where mileage is high and fuel is the bigger cost, an economy remap makes more sense. Vans that carry heavy loads or tow are suited to a van remap, and every one of these maps is £275 + VAT.
Vans and work vehicles in Wigan
Business vans in Wigan can be remapped at the yard or depot, in a gap between jobs. If you've got a few to do, we'll aim to cover them in one visit, and a trade account makes regular bookings easier.
Ford's locked SID212 ECU is fitted to many 2018-on Transit, Transit Custom and Ranger models. Those ECUs go away to be unlocked and programmed, so allow 7 days and £1,200 + VAT. See our Ford SID212 guide for details.

Plain answers if a remap won't help
When the check shows a problem mapping can't solve, we'll say so straight away.
Is remapping safe for my engine?
The thing to avoid is mapping over a fault, so the codes are read before anything is changed. Our guide on whether remapping is worth it covers the safety side in more depth.
Will a remap affect my manufacturer warranty?
It might. If the car is still under warranty, a manufacturer can turn down claims on parts it links to the remap, so read the terms first.
Can you remap a Transit or Ranger with the SID212 ECU?
Yes, though not at your home or business. Many 2018-on Fords use the locked SID212, which we have unlocked off site and refit within 7 days for £1,200 + VAT. Fords without the SID212 are mapped on site in Wigan for £275 + VAT.
What happens if the fault check finds a problem?
You'll hear what the codes mean before we go further. A diagnostic check costs £100 + VAT, and once the fault is fixed the remap can be booked again.
