Yes. A remap isn't a repair, and existing mechanical or engine-management problems should ideally be identified before increasing performance.
What to check first
- Engine faults
- Turbo problems
- Fuel-system problems
- Warning lights
- Misfires
- Clutch problems
- Overheating problems
- DPF issues
- Poor servicing history
Why this matters
A remap shouldn't simply be used to hide an existing mechanical problem. Diagnostic checks before remapping can help identify stored fault codes, sensor problems and existing mechanical issues.
