Hi and welcome to the forum.

 

There are a couple of options for remaps depending on which part of the country you are from.

to the club. You are probably in the middle of RS Tuning and Abbey for a re-map, couple of hours in either direction, good excuse for a out!!!

Oil sounds low to me. Mine isn't ever just on tip... and yes it is the oddest dip stick ever.

 

Welcome in.

Welcome to the forum

Yup the dipstick is a bl**dy nightmare - but does sound low...surely though if you've just bought it its been serviced recently?

Remap gains depend on the other mods you have fitted, between 10 and 30BHP seems to be the norm. More important might be the removal of the power limiter in lower gears and a smoother a/f mixture plot

Hello. Any pics to share of your Zed?

[Ebized]

Check the level when the oil is cold and you are on level ground. You might have to 'dip' several times to get a relaible reading. Also - what is the oild pressure guage reading at tickover and at 60mph in 6th gear? If the guage seems a bit erractic that is a sign of low oil as the pump picks up what is there and in turn triggers the guage sensor.

 

If stil in doubt go back to the garage and insist on an oil change

how do you remove the power limiter cheers

remap is a starting place to get more throttle which is limited in the lower gears, also improved curves. Abbey or RS Tuning are two companies that can help you out with this.
