Those with the woeful 1.9 Isuzu

[Timbo]

Very very reputable tuning company doing a fine job on the 1.9.

They also do the 2.5.

Are you based all over the uk ?
Does it improve the mpg as currently getting27.2 mpg

How does it affect the 5 year warranty?

 

[Timbo]

Warranty would be void.

Mpg improved in normal driving

 

[paul&mandy]

Why cant isuzu offer this or similar map to keep the warranty?
Bloody awful engine.

Our Isuzu dealer offers a remap that keeps warranty

And it's 500% better than the factory software but not a patch on a proper aftermarket map.

I have no connection with Pendle .

Does it need this? Ours pulls 3.5 tonne every day and pulls well

Bloody awful engine.

Id not even say the factory software is compromised to meet emissions or poor fuel.

Like the previous 2.5, it';s like all the tea boy had a go at writing the software on a Friday afternoon at 4pm.

"well" is relative. Try a 3.2 ranger or 3.0 amorak and see if you feel " well" still describes it.

Is yours the 1.9? We just got a new l200 that is actually less hp but goes like a rocket compared to the isuzu

Hope their products are better than their website.

I went from a 2.2 ranger to the 1.9 Isuzu, pulls just as well if not better.
do I need more power? it’s doing the job very well so far

That wouldn’t be bad economy as an average.

 

[ARW]

Ours averages 21 mpg and always has a trailer on, same as our previous ranger

 

[fermerboy]

Pendle have a very good reputation in VW circles.
No personal experience of their work though.

See that Toyota are bucking the trend for this little blocks, with a bigger capacity engine, 2.8 and 201bhp

on 2.5L if throttle pressed when cold nothing happens for 5 to 10 seconds and power is less than half till warmed up,would tunning or remap sort it out, service made no difference

Is yours a manual or auto box?
Might have the chance of an auto 3.2 shortly

My 3.2 auto has been re-mapped and pulls like a train averaging 28 mpg. 34 mpg on a good run. The stability is where it shines over the Isuzu. Very well balanced and planted on the road. I had a 3.0 Isuzu which pulled very well but was like a boat on the road. Test drove a new 1.9 and felt sea sick after 10 miles. Awful ride, but if it's all you know, you can't compare. My son has the new Wildtrak 2.0 and the engine is sharper and more nippy than my re-mapped 3.2 and the mpg is about the same but will the engine last if towing, time will tell. Had a test drive in the Amarok, WOW, but you had to pull in to most petrol stations!
