    Crazy, in Germany you're looking at 8-10.000€ just for the parts alone. Very nice to see the BAC and consortium to see some love. I have a Touareg R5 with a simple chip which woke up the car in many ways. Fuel consumption went down from 9,8L/100km on mainly city and country to 7,7L/100km and the torque limit beneath 2100 where the engine just died, making accelerating even in first gear a problem, went away and now you get power from 1800 onwards with more power beneath 2000 in every gear. It's quicker and cleaner too, no smoke anymore and at the TÜV the clouding/smoke value was at 0.08 whereas the acceptable limit to pass exhaust inspection sits at 0.25, crazy!

    hello. You mention that the cylinder lining goes out. As I understand, this was a problem more with the first generation, up until 2007 or so. But 2008 and after, this was corrected. Do you recommend to sleeve the cylinder lining in older generation engines that don't have this problem?
