Gearbox Remapping

Gearbox remapping is a process that recalibrates the parameters that control a car's gearbox to improve its performance, economy, and driving experience. It's often done in conjunction with an engine remap to fully optimize a vehicle's performance.

Here are some things to know about gearbox remapping

  • Why it's done

    Gearbox remapping can remove torque limits that are set by the gearbox computer when a vehicle is first produced. These limits can prevent a vehicle from reaching its full potential. 

  • How it's done

    Gearbox remapping involves recalibrating the parameters in the Transmission Control Unit (TCU), which is the electronic management system for the gearbox. 

  • When it's done

    Gearbox remapping is often done in conjunction with an engine remap. 

  • Who it's available for

    Gearbox remapping is available for most common TCU's, such as the ZF and DSG gearboxes found in modern BMW and VAG group vehicles. 

  • What it can do

    Gearbox remapping can improve a vehicle's performance, economy, and driving experience. 

  • What it doesn't do

    Gearbox remapping doesn't need to be done, but it can be a good option to get the most out of a tuned engine.
