You can buy something called Tar Remover from any car accessory shop and it removes residues with ease.

Straw? Are they still there 😆

Tch! No mudguards 🤣 Just begging to be pulled over….

The person in question seems to have a bit of a reputation on Facebook. You’d have to trust that anything had actually been loaded let alone the right map. To be honest my v-cross runs fine as it is. It’s a lot sharper than my previous 2.5 d’max and although running about locally with...

I couldn’t possibly comment 🤣 I had no intention of taking up the offer. Suppose my point was any skally could supply the Isuzu remap.

As has been said no they won’t as after all it is an illegal activity tampering with a vehicles emissions controls. Bear in mind if caught there are threats of heavy fines and you’ll have to make good the ‘tampering’ 😳 I’m also led to believe your insurance is invalidated. All that said I’ve not...

Subject to the dyno graphs being genuine though don’t have any real reason to doubt them. Martin at Pendle did comment on one of his vids that he’d had a facelift 1.9 with the Isuzu remap flashed. He said the their quoted figures were correct though the actual remap was very rough and his was a...

Exactly. The Isuzu remap is provided by Ecutek and it’s simply flashing the ecu with the ecutek file. Chap on Facebook who‘s doing dpf deletes etc said he could flash me the Ecutek file for £450. Having done one or two he says there has been no feedback from any dealers and of course you are...

I would have thought so. Chatted with a chap on Facebook who had a facelift 1.9 d’max and he said Martins remap transformed his truck. Forgot what figures in hp and torque he quoted but was similar to the claimed from Isuzu. Fella at Scarborough had his v-cross tuned by Martin before Isuzu...

I don’t know it makes it a lot better. Has anyone put one with the approved remap on a rolling road? I’d like to see if the claimed figures are actual? Dealer lent me a v-cross with the remap when I slightly bent mine. I just felt you could spend £800 better elsewhere. Really found it difficult...

Not the best the Isuzu dpf solution. Those that get the best out come have had the dpf internals removed and remapped accordingly. I’ve not heard of anyone failing emissions test at mot. There is talk the gov are aware of these rascals fiddling about with emissions controls on vehicles and talk...

At first glance I thought it’s a pimped up old model - certainly looks like one?

Not surprised regards the d’max - if it was a 2.5 as brakes aren’t the best - or at least I found them a little lacking in an emergency. Fella not so far away is leasing a Hilux instead of a d’max as it was quite a bit cheaper. That said the Hilux is being delayed and he might have second...

Are you missing that 2.0 Ranger @Drillman 🤣🤣 I’d say buy now as lease looks expensive though if you shop round their May be deals to be had. Some tell me they nail you when you hand it back for marks and dings on bodywork. I think whatever you do they know what they want for new vehicle and...

How have they increased the track as wheels look the same as standard track Hilux? Presume they don’t do the same as the bro’s on Facebook hilux group and slap spacers on 🤣 Are they using a wider rear axle? Looks ok though. Could be! Talking to a near neighbour today was due to take delivery...
