Hello good friends and fans of the Panda:
I am the proud owner of a bright orange Cross here in Switzerland. The little car is amazing. It has the 1.3 Multijet Turbodiesel. I am interested in boosting the power and torque using a Powerclick chip.
My question to the more knowledgable fans here: I have heard and read conflicting reports on the affect this may have on the reliability of especially the transmission and clutch. Is this true? I know for a fact it invalidates the guarantee from Fiat in terms of the gearbox (that is if you tell them.) The power gain seems modest but there is a 45 Nm increase in torque, which is quite a bit. Any ideas, or should I just keep the car stock standard? That would be a shame though, but I will heed your advice.
Best to all here!
