Off topic, sorry.

Tony, if you don't mind me asking; how to you adjust the temp of the water going to your brush as your heater seems to be missing the temp adjuster/s. These are the holes you have your bungee cords in.

Hi spruce

It's controlled electronically, it's a 9.6 kW but I can turn down to 4.8
So it's a thermo II one man system as I didn't find the thermo I man enough

I find this satisfactory for summer or winter use, hope that helps

Would you care to review your remap tom?
I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts on it.

I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts on it.

Yer no problem,
I brought my T32 with the 1.9 engine, as with all of us fuel is quite a large bill so i though id go for the "Eco" engine,
it has a standard BHP of about 102-104 BHP which is fair to say a bit slow in somthing that can weigh upto 3.2 tons.
so i got in contact with Pendle Performance and they remapped it to about 150 Bhp but more importantly the torque it has now makes driving really quite good fun,
As with the MPG without my roof bars on i can regularly get over 600 miles too a tank and thats window cleaning E.G starting and stopping all day long which is the worse sort of driving for getting the most out of the tank  :)

best money iv spent since iv started.

About £250.00

I think from when I last worked it out that meant it was gettting
around 40MPG but i may be wrong
