Supra-Brett Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Just bought a Chevrolet Captiva 2.0vcdi. Its basically the same car as the Vauxhall Antera but not sure if the engine is the same as other vauxhalls. Any idea if it shares any parts or if it can be remapped?

sideexitsupra Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Google search shows the diesel to be an Italian VM engine. It is identical to the Vauxhall Antara bar the badges. Think this is different to most of the other diesels from Vauxhall. Try this http://www.chipmydiesel.com/products/diesel-chip-tuning/vauxhall-opel/antara-cdti/1022.html Or google Vauxhall Antara diesel chip tuning Hope that helps?

Are there any drawbacks with these remaps? or is it one of those rare moments when there are none and you get the best of everything?

heckler Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 These are not remap as such, but they do everything as advertised, increase in power, torque and mpg! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
