Sorry to resurrect an old thread
Having not used my Astra for while and jumping back in after using my 265bhp remap Saab Aero, I found the Astra a little lacking..........no shock
Having had two previous tuning boxes on the car I fancied something different this time
Someone was selling a DTUK red tuning box for the 2.0 cdti 165 Astra on ebay, they assured me it worked fine on their 2014 Astra J GTC, I put a cheeky offer in on it and it was accepted
I was sceptical if it would work or not, it arrived today, fitted it in two seconds, switched on the ignition and started the engine, checked the LED on the box and it was solid and illuminated
Went for a drive, car felt a bit more perky, its currently on setting 7, which is the default setting
So, is it really working ? when people said it wouldnt work anymore, in what respect and how do you know its not working ?
My Astra (mine is a June 2013 model) went back to Vauxhall for its 3 year service last June and also had the latest ECU software installed, so, in theory its running the latest software......
