If the problem is in ECU program you have to go to some tuning shop who know what they are doing. With this I mean best of your country, so not the places where they just try to sell chipping but where they do also harcore modifications to cars.

I believe the ecu thinks you dont have any tooth there because the rpms are so low or something. You could also try to ask VW is they have had any similar problems. For that you need to have a friend in VW dealer because they are not going to give that information to clients.

If you find out what was the problem I am interested to hear because I have plans to install even taller gears on my Lupo...
