I don't know where you got that info that you will have to pay again $525 for retune, but Mark Malone only chargers the difference between Stages and not full retail price again if you decided to go with different stage. So if you got Stage 1 (retails at $500) and decides to go for Stage 2 (retails at $550) then you will pay difference of $50, at least that's how we do it here and of course this price stays like this if we were the ones performed that original tune the first time. If you have more questions feel free contact me.
I reached back out to the shop in question and last time I was there (just talking) they were planning to get hooked up with them BUT hadn't. I reached back out and they hadn't yet but I kind of reminded. :-DMrrogers1, Just curious who do you know that does Malone Tuning in Omaha? From what I know and listed on Malone site there are no authorize dealers in NE, unless Mark haven't updated his site.BTW if you are interested tune let me know and we can definitely do that for you. PS: on Monday I just did 2014 Passat TDI Stage 2 tune & DSG, was pretty impressed with how nice that car rides. Also looks like VW redesigned few things on that engine compared to 2012 TDI's.
Cool, link me (all of us) to where you have been asking around in the forum, I could probably save some questions on how you landed with the cat+res or anything else. (I have been following DD on another TDI forum and decided Les would be getting my money when it's time). Is the DPF in your 2013 JSW already clogged?
Im in Sioux Falls, SD, about 2.5-3 hrs north of Omaha on I-29.
Sorry should stated earlier, I have a shop here in SF and we bought equipment last summer to be able to tune 2009+ newer VW/Audi cars, so we do all in house except Malone does his magic at his place and emails files to us. In my signature there is my site listed you can find our address and contact info.I don't know about driving with it like that BUT possibly Losha does the loaner FlashZilla deal and could send with delete tune??
He will be fine driving with DPF deleted for few hrs, I dont see any harm to be done, I think driving with DPF delete tune on car with DPF still in car might cause issues, but not vise versa.I don't know about driving with it like that BUT possibly Losha does the loaner FlashZilla deal and could send with delete tune??
*Is there another thread you have been posting questions and such in? I'd like to pop over there if so and see what the discussion is.
Losha, check your email.
I believe that is exhaust flap and warranty is extended to 120k. I had mine done, let me check my saved Ross-tech logs...
Thanks man, I was hoping a bad one could be of use.... Spoke to tuner and it cannot. I was hoping the MIL could be tuned out of the valve was open and inoperable. inoperable. I know when mine failed I had a pretty amazing tank while it was stuck open. Problem is, while it could be tuned out, the ability to regen would be lost and since I'm not doing my DPF delete until it fails, that's no good.
No, I understand that, broken or good wouldn't matter and broken has no value vs good. Speaking of, I think I just someone on the board needing one... I'll PM them and see if they bought yet. Might be able to make a little cash if you're willing to part with it.
