I had my Duccato 2.3 (2007) remapped at the peterborough show. It certainly feels different. Also before remap I was avaraging 21.5mpg and now on a 100 mile run I am getting 28mpg which is very good, however I noticed that when changing up and down gears whilst looking in my mirror saw black smoke coming out of the exhaust. Not loads but enought to be concerned. Is this anything worry about?

I've just had the "Power " re-map done even though I'm looking for better fuel consumption. I don't know if it's worked or not as the van is still on the drive where it was done the other day. I will be taking it to Camper UK on Thursday for a service so I may see a difference then even though it's ony 20 miles away.
The "Power " re-mapping was the suggested one as the engine is the 2.3 but the van weighs 4 tonne in Spanish mode.

Had ours done at the NEC show. We went for the power map. Big difference in performance. I was a little concerned when the clutch burned out 2 weeks later. But it was not connected. I would recommend it.

Thoroughly recommended. I would have every diesel engine remapped - mine simply flies up hills in top even when towing the boat..... Economy over 3000 miles improved by about 2 mpg

£330 if you have it done at home, hopefully it will pay for itself over a year or two.

I've got to say that we never did this for the economics but simply for the greater ease of driving. Any fuel economy gain is a bonus - mine went from 25.2 to 27.4 so it might pay for itself in a few hundred years........
