widu13 Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 It doesn't work on Galaxys. Got the method on ebay for ALL Ford inc Gals and when it didn't work, contacted seller who said he knewhttp://www.websmileys.com/sm/fingers/fing07.gif Quote
dave_m Posted December 10, 2005 Report Posted December 10, 2005 Anyone who wants to try this on a mark one, With engine On, Hold down the Trip Reset Button and switch off the engine whilst still holding the button restart the engine and continue holding for two or three seconds, I don't know if this works but this is the procedure being sold on ebay. :( Quote

seatkid Posted December 10, 2005 Report Posted December 10, 2005 A bloke down the pub told me if you press and hold the brake pedal together with trip reset button, then turn on the ignition, wait ten seconds, press the horn three times, release the trip button, then the brake pedal and start the car WITHOUT turning off the ignition, then press the trip button again and hold for four seconds.....it will change the program in the ECU so your 115 bhp TDi becomes a 130 bhp. Apparently there are similar procedures to convert other models e.g. 2.3L to 2.8L. He promised to email me his Ebay link which I will post later.... :( Quote

Ivor_E_Tower Posted December 10, 2005 Report Posted December 10, 2005 ..... Apparently there are similar procedures to convert other models e.g. 2.3L to 2.8L. There is a clue to the type of advice if you look hard enough.There are mechanical differences to the top end of the 115 and 130 versions. You cannot increase the power via a "VW" software code.

MrT Posted December 11, 2005 Report Posted December 11, 2005 Change the readings from mph to kph then you will think you are going faster. Quote
Gadgetoid Posted December 12, 2005 Report Posted December 12, 2005 If you would only try a search you would have seen that I posted on this weeks ago :huh: The procedure is taken from the Ford Focus website AND DOESN'T WORK FOR GALAXIES :( Quote
