PDpower Remaps

15/10/2026

🔧 We’ve got a nice little group testing the PDpower Switchable Map Coder, and we’re looking for a few more active testers.

Ideally, we’re after people with access to several cars or a customer base who are happy to help test, rather than just one personal car. Being able to edit your own maps is not essential but to get it fully free you'd make the maps yourself.

✅ Files on the app listed as still needing testing get FREE switchable coding. Once confirmed working, you keep that switchable file and can finish the maps yourself.

Can test the switching but can’t map it yourself? We can offer discounted map work to finish it off, with the switchable coding free.

You’ll need:
• Suitable cars for testing in the vehicle, not just on the bench.
• The tools and knowledge to read, write and recover the ECU, with full backups.
• Willingness to report your results through the app.
• A free account on our website.

⚠️ This is testing, so you must understand and accept the risks. Free coding does not mean the file is already verified working.

💬 Interested? Comment on this post with some of the cars you have available for testing, their ECU and software numbers, and whether you edit your own maps.

Include the full numbers: 038906019 followed by its letter suffix, plus SG followed by four digits. For example: 038906019HJ / SG1576. We’ll check which files still need testing.

Once testing is nearly complete there will be no free access as its only available to trade members, so now’s a good time to get involved.

🔥 312BHP & 402 FT-LBS (545NM) AND WE’RE NOT FINISHED YET! 🔥

Another video sent in from one of our customers running a PDpower remote custom tune on his seriously modified PD TDI! 💪💨

He’s also recently been helping us test our brand-new PDpower Switchable Map Coder, which is still in development and has been showing some very promising results so far! 👨‍💻

We’re now making a few more tweaks to get all 3 maps dialled in:

🟢 Map 1 – ECO: A cleaner, more economical setup for everyday driving.

🟠 Map 2 – POWER: A strong, responsive power map with a good balance of performance and drivability.

🔴 Map 3 – FULL SEND: All guns blazing! 🚀 Seeing if we can squeeze even more out of the setup while keeping things within safe limits!

💥 Current figures:

* 312 BHP
* 402 FT-LBS / 545 NM of torque

Fabia vrs running some serious hardware, including a 2265 AR Performance turbo, 120% Firad injectors, 272 cam, ported head and plenty more!

It’s great seeing customers putting our remote tuning and new software to the test, especially on builds like this.

Can we push it even further? Let’s find out! 👀🔥

📢 PDpower Switchable Map Coder update — 3 tester spaces available!

The latest update makes testing, feedback and approvals clearer. Approval changes now sync online without another download for coding already included in the program.

Some previously invited testers haven’t been active or submitted feedback, so their testing access will be revoked and those spaces offered to new testers.

🚗 We need people with access to cars using the ECU/software versions below. Testing must be completed on the car, not just on a bench, with feedback submitted through the app.

What you get:
• Free program access during agreed testing.
• Complete the testing and feedback, and keep the program and licence free, including the final release.
• If the switchable coding is verified working on your car, you get to keep that coded file for free. Make your own tunes for its map slots, or have PDpower make the maps at our normal tuning price, with no extra switchable-coding charge.
• Afterwards, buy credits for supported verified jobs: £15 for a VIN change or £30 for new switchable coding.
• Upgrade to Pro for unlimited supported app jobs instead of using credits.

Free customer-test options currently shown:

Brake + accelerator:
• 038906019DD / SG1518
• 038906019FE / SG1419
• 038906019FF / SG1449
• 038906019FT / SG1577
• 038906019HH / SG1578
• 038906019JT / SG1572
• 038906019KG / SG5342
• 038906019KH / SG4901
• 038906019KJ / SG5256
• 038906019LB / SG5101
• 038906019NC / SG6138
• 038906019NE / SG6119
• 038906019NF / SG5839
• 038906019NJ / SG6412
• 038906019NJ / SG7331
• 038906019NT / SG8353
• 045906019BF / SG5179
• 045906019BM / SG5181

Clutch + cruise control:
• 038906019GQ / SG1524
• 038906019NF / SG7000

Free-test options for both brake + accelerator and clutch + cruise control:
• 038906019FG / SG1470
• 038906019HH / SG1491
• 038906019HJ / SG1490
• 038906019KE / SG4898
• 038906019LA / SG5405
• 038906019NL / SG7458

Some ECU/software versions have both verified and unverified coding options. Only the exact options marked “Free customer test” qualify. Matching ECU/SG numbers alone do not guarantee compatibility; the app must also recognise the file’s coding and layout.

⚠️ These are unverified test options, not guaranteed working coding. Keep verified full flash and EEPROM backups, and have suitable read/write tools, recovery equipment and the knowledge to recover the ECU if needed. Use the ECU the file was read from, in its original vehicle. The program prepares coding; it does not flash the ECU or create power tunes.

Have any of these cars available to test? Comment below with the car, ECU number and SG version, and confirm that you understand and accept the testing risks and can recover the ECU if necessary.

If you have none of these available for vehicle testing, please don’t enquire about a tester space.

🚀 As some of you know, we’ve been smashing the updates lately at PDpower!

🔀 Our Switchable Map Coder is currently in testing, with good results so far. We’re still looking for people to try FREE switchable test files on currently supported setups. If you can flash the ECU yourself, there’s no charge to take part — drop us a message with your ECU details.

🔒 We’ve also been working on EDC15 File Scrambler for tuners, designed to help protect your hard work from being copied and sold on. With cheaper tools and software making DIY ECU tuning more accessible, protecting your files matters more than ever — especially when someone changes your work and your original map gets blamed for the results.

🌐 The website homepage has had an update too, making it simpler to find services, prices, booking options and trade benefits:
https://pdpowerremaps.com/

Have a look and let us know what you think! What’s working well, and what would you like to see next? 👇

Mobile ECU remapping and tuning file service for diesel cars. Stage 1, big turbo builds, custom maps. Fast, mobile or online tuning.

💻 2 more free tester places available!

We’re looking for testers for the PDpower Switchable Map Coder, working with supported EDC15P 1.4–1.9 TDI files.

✅ What testers get:
• Program + licence free, with nothing to pay upfront.
• Free eligible testing files, with vehicle-test results reported through the app.
• Keep your licence after testing ends. Verified jobs then use credits, or upgrade to Pro for unlimited supported coding.
• Supported files prepared instantly, without waiting for manual coding.

Current planned prices:
• Program + Licence: £30, credits purchased separately.
• Professional Bundle: £179, including the program and unlimited supported VIN changes and switchable-file creation. Custom coding is extra.

Prices may increase once testing is complete. Purchasing will be restricted to approved trade accounts, so testing is a good way to get involved without paying upfront.

Tests so far have been successful on a small number of cars using different switching methods. This is encouraging, but doesn’t guarantee every file or vehicle will work.

⚠️ You must have verified backups, suitable tools and the knowledge to read, write and recover an ECU if something goes wrong. Your own or friends’ compatible cars are welcome, with permission.

📩 Interested? Sign up free on our website and message us your account email. We’ll arrange access and send you the program.

🔧 PDpower software development update

There have been a few updates to the switchable coder app, so anyone currently testing it, please make sure you accept the update when prompted.

If you’re running a really old version, you may need to download the latest version from the website first—or just contact me and I’ll help you get sorted 👍

Also in the works is the PDpower File Scrambler for 1.4 and 1.9 TDI EDC15 files.

As these older ECUs become more accessible and easier to tune, protecting your work is becoming increasingly important. This tool is being developed to make it harder for others to copy your maps and pass them off as their own, or alter your work and then blame the original tuner.

You’ll still be able to restore your own saved master for future editing.

The scrambler is also in testing and will be available for sale once compatibility and operation have been verified for the supported versions.

Keep an eye on the website for updates 👇

🚨 5 MORE TESTER SLOTS AVAILABLE 🚨

We’re giving away another 5 tester slots for our new Switchable Map Coder application for Windows devices.

We’re mainly looking for people who map files themselves, either DIY or as a business, or who have a few cars available to test it on. You must know how to properly read and write an ECU, and how to recover it if something goes wrong.

✅ All files marked “test pending” are FREE to code during testing.

✅ Once testing is complete and the application is finished, you can keep your licence for the credits-based version for FREE to use in future. Credits for coding are purchased separately.

✅ You can also upgrade to Pro for unlimited use with a one-time payment. Prices will go up as development progresses, so it’s a good time to get involved while it’s still in early development.

We’ve already had successful tests with users, but only on a couple of files so far. We’re looking for more testers to help check a wider range of files and vehicles.

📝 You’ll need to submit feedback through the app when testing files. It will ask you a few questions about the file and how the testing went. We’d also like you to report any app bugs or issues you find and share suggestions for improving the application.

📧 You’ll need an account on our website. Send us the email address you used to register in a private message so we can activate your free licence.

⚠️ This is early development software, and errors are possible. ECU writing carries risks, including a non-starting vehicle / Or an ECU that needs recovery, Only take part if you understand those risks and have the equipment, backups and experience to deal with them.

Interested? Message us with your setup, experience and the vehicles you can test on.

🔧 PDpower Switchable Map Coder: testers wanted

We’re looking for people to test supported EDC15P switchable coding before the full launch.

Coding marked **Customer testing** will be free to prepare, with no credits used. You’ll need to report how that file worked before preparing another free test file.

Testers will receive the app licence free and stay on the credit top-up system when it goes live. That means you keep the app, then buy credits for future jobs.

**Planned launch prices:**
• App licence: £30, free for participating testers
• Credits: £15 each
• Change VIN on an existing program-made switchable: 1 credit (£15)
• Fresh supported switchable coding: 2 credits (£30)
• Custom coding for an unsupported file: 3 credits (£45)
• Pro: £179, unlimited supported app jobs; custom coding £32.50

Any licence holder can also request future file support through the free waiting list.

This adds switchable coding, not a bespoke power tune. You can use your own suitable maps, or we can quote for making them separately.

⚠️ Test coding is not yet confirmed working on the ECU. Keep full flash and EEPROM backups, and only take part if you have the tools and skills to read, write and recover the ECU if something goes wrong.

You'll need an account on our website to take part, and please give honest feedback on all map selections, VIN binding and anything unexpected.

🚀 PDpower Automated Switchable Maps Tool – Development Update

We’ve been working on a new automated coding tool for EDC15 PD switchable maps, designed to make creating and coding switchable-map files considerably quicker and easier.

The system is currently still in the testing and development stage, but testing so far has been successful ✅

This is aimed especially at customers, tuners and businesses who already create their own tuned files, but currently have to spend the extra time coding switchable maps themselves or pay somebody else to do the switchable coding for them.

💰 If you already make your own files, this could save you a considerable amount of time and money.

Instead of sending files away, waiting for them to be coded and paying someone each time, the aim is to let you upload your own file and have the switchable-map coding handled automatically.

For businesses doing multiple files, those savings can quickly add up — while also allowing you to keep more of the work in-house and get files completed quicker for your own customers.

The plan is to offer different ways of accessing the system:

⚡ Credits – ideal for occasional users who only need to code switchable files now and again.

🔥 Pro access – aimed at regular users, tuners and businesses who will be using the system much more frequently and want better value for higher usage.

There’s still further development and testing taking place, and features, credit usage and final pricing may change before release while we work out the best setup.

Testing so far has been very successful, and we’ll continue running more files and different configurations through the system before the full release. 👀

The goal is simple — make switchable-map coding faster, cheaper and easier, especially for people already capable of creating their own tuned files.

More information on pricing, credits, Pro access and release availability coming soon. 🚀

It’s been a couple of months since I’ve owned a PD now… and even longer since I’ve had a proper bigger build 😅

I’m starting to get the itch again, so give me some inspiration 👀🔥

Drop your PD builds in the comments — photos, specs, power figures, turbo setups, the lot 👇

And if anyone has anything interesting for sale, post the full spec and price too. Ideally North West, but I’d consider something further away if delivery is possible.

Let’s see what everyone’s built 😎💨
