Common questions

How do I book a Stage 1 or Stage 2 remap in Dorset?

Use the booking page with a £50 deposit or call 01202 503 328. Give the registration and whether the car is stock or already has intake and exhaust. We confirm the protocol before we travel.

What does a 24Tuning remap include that a downloaded file does not?

Diagnostics first, a factory backup on supported ECUs, and a file written for the engine in front of us. A generic download has none of that, and we will not flash over warning lights to win a peak number.

How much is Stage 1 versus Stage 2?

Car and van Stage 1 starts from £199. Stage 2 is £399 when the hardware already supports it. 4 year software warranty plus 30 day money back (T&Cs apply). Bikes, ATVs and jet-skis start from £249. Marine starts from £799.

Do you sell DPF or AdBlue delete for UK roads?

No. We repair AdBlue, DPF, EGR, NOx and O2 systems. We do not sell emissions deletion software for UK highway use.

Will you remap a car that already has warning lights?

No. We scan first. If the health check fails, you get a repair explanation, not a file written around a fault.

Should I tell my insurer after a remap?

Yes. A remap is a modification even when the car looks standard. We can summarise the file. Premiums are the insurer’s decision.

Can I have the original map put back?

Yes, on supported ECUs where we hold the backup. Call 01202 503 328 with the registration if a dealer visit or a sale needs stock software.

Do you come to me, or do I drop the car in Bournemouth?

Most Stage 1 work is mobile across Bournemouth, Poole and Hampshire. Dyno time is by appointment in Bournemouth and is a different product.

How long does a mobile Stage 1 take?

Usually one to two hours including the scan, backup, write and a verify. Allow more if the ECU needs bench access.

What if I am not happy with the drive in the first month?

4 year software warranty plus 30 day money back (T&Cs apply). If the vehicle stays in the configuration we mapped and the complaint is about our file, call 01202 503 328 and we deal with it.

Is chip tuning different from remapping?

On this site they mean the same job: rewriting the ECU calibration. It is not a piggy-back box taped in the engine bay.

Where should I read next if I already know my model?

Open the matching model guide or the Stage 1 / Stage 2 hub. This FAQ only clears the common doubts so you are not mixing van advice with a jet-ski problem.
