This isn't an advert - just a word of thanks and a recommendation for anyone in the East Mids who's thinking about having a tune.
I eventually given in and had my 2005 TD5 remapped, it ran 'fine' as standard but after hearing what 'could' be done, I decided to take the plunge.
A local garage who'd done a recent service recommended Gee Diesel Services in Hucknall, Nottingham. I spoke to Daryl who said he'd done numerous Defenders and TD5's before, every map was done from 'custom' not just uploaded from a file, then test driven to see if there were any flat spots or room for improvement, it worked a treat, no flat spots, lots more low down torque, pulls better throughout the rev range and is now much nicer to drive. I've not done enough miles to have accurate fuel economy figures but I'd be surprised if it wasn't an improvement. I'd heard of JE Tuning and Alive etc but they are all miles away. Well worth the outlay.
