They don't mind really low rpm.
Even the 1.4 and 1.2L TDi will put up a good fight at low rpm.

With the smaller PSA engines like Piwoslaw and mine, the horses are only ponies in the lower regions.
From low rpm, they pick up more reluctantly than their VW counterparts.

In 4th, 1800 rpm is the lower limit for me (2000rpm in 5th).
It'll do lower rpm, but at a price.

Plug in remappers are quite good for CR HDis. I think Euromodder was looking at one for his V50.
After the 140.000km service, as the all too frequent DPF regenerations will need to be looked at.

I don't want them to blame it on the remapping, nor do I want the dealer to overwrite the new mapping in an attempt to remedy the DPF issue.
