Default Can you remap VW Diesel Autos ?

As per the thread title, a PD 100 engined Auto Boxed Golf needing a little more power, can it be done or does it cause problems with things like the auto box torque rating, electronic control etc ?

The autobox needs to be remapped also in most cases. This can also be done by the tuner with the correct kit.

You dont allways need the auto box remapped. I got my A4 2.5tdi mapped and it was fine but the guy did say when we test drove after the map that if there was a problem he would map the box. Got mine done at star performance and he is pretty well known for VAG re-maps.
