Reliable Time Length Of A Tune?

[Floyd Legg]

Hey my nado was last tuned roughly 4yrs ago. Just wandering should there be a... 'top up' tune every say 2 or 3 years done just for like maintainence? just wandering wether general wear and tear, age and kms would have any kind of effect on the tune. I beleive cars kind of have a 'soul' lol. Thoughts?

Would be a good idea to run it up on the dyno for a power run and to check A/F reading.Fuel pumps deteriate over time and filters block up,Cheap procedure for peace of mind.

Ive had my tune for a fair while (3 years) and it feels like it can do with a "tune up" it might just need everything tightened again. I reflash my tune once every few months usually when I service the car.

Cars having souls is another way of saying that it can be unreliable sometimes lol

hmm, bought mine in 2005, did 10,000km then started the upgrades, first tune dune in 2005 as well, second 2006 with a few more mods.

A few more mods in 2007 at around 50,000km. It's nearly 2012, and I've done 185,000km with over 300rwkw since 2007. I don't drive it hard though, just the occasional blast through the mountains.

Still going just as strong, albeit I do baby it around.
