Malone TDI Tuning

Custom calibrations for every North American TDI application.

Custom Calibrations

Unlike cheap tuning boxes that simply alter sensor readings, Malone tunes are true ECU calibrations. Boost pressure, fuel injection timing, and quantity maps are all adjusted for optimal performance and reliability.

Improved Fuel Economy

Better combustion efficiency means more miles per gallon. Many Malone customers report improved fuel economy along with the power gains, thanks to optimized injection timing and more complete combustion.

Multiple Stages

From mild daily driver tunes to aggressive performance calibrations, Malone offers multiple stages based on your goals and supporting modifications. We'll help you choose the right stage for your needs.

Hot-Start Fix

Many TDI owners struggle with hard hot-starts. Malone calibrations include optimized hot-start parameters that address this common issue, making your diesel start reliably in all conditions.

Dynamic Idle

Improved idle quality with dynamic idle adjustment. No more rough idle or excessive vibration. The engine runs smoother at idle and transitions cleanly when you get on the throttle.

Glow Plug Duration

Optimized glow plug timing for reliable cold starts, especially important during Kansas winters. Extended glow plug duration ensures your TDI starts smoothly even in freezing temperatures.

These guys know their stuff, my Jetta is in good hands and for the first time I did not have a credit card or care credit offer shoved in my face, or got treated like I was dumb. These guys asked questions and actually tried to recreate the problem I had in order to better assess my car. They have been prompt in answering by texts which is easier some days with work schedules to communicate. They were friendly and knowledgeable and I think I have found the best new place to bring my Jetta.

100% recommend. Extreme thank you to the team for getting me and my Audi Q5 home after bringing it in with multiple issues. And going into detail explaining the issues and helping to get them fixed. Extremely grateful for the great customer service and men laboring.

I took my 2014 TDI Passat in for a timing belt change and cam carrier seal leaking. Chad was excellent at communicating via text. Quick turn around and high quality level of work. They are very competitive pricing wise. If you have a Volkswagen or Audi, I recommend this shop.

Malone TDI Tuning FAQ

Common questions about Malone diesel performance tuning.

As an authorized Malone Tuning dealer, we tune all North American TDI models including 1.9L PD engines (ALH, BEW, BRM), 2.0L common rail engines (CJAA, CBEA), and 3.0L V6 TDI engines. This covers Jetta, Golf, Passat, Beetle, Touareg, and Audi A3, A4, A6, Q5, and Q7 TDI models.

Malone tunes are true ECU calibrations, not generic tuning boxes that simply alter sensor readings. Malone precisely adjusts boost pressure, fuel injection timing, and fuel quantity maps at specific RPM points. This results in smooth power delivery, properly controlled boost, and minimal smoke. Tuning boxes can cause drivability issues and don't optimize the entire powerband like a proper calibration does.

Many Malone customers report improved fuel economy along with the power gains. This is because Malone calibrations optimize injection timing and fuel delivery for more complete combustion. Of course, if you frequently use the additional power, fuel consumption will increase. But with normal driving habits, you can often see better MPG than stock.

The Malone tuning process typically takes 1-2 hours depending on your specific vehicle and ECU type. Some older TDI models may require bench flashing which takes additional time. We'll provide an accurate estimate when you schedule your appointment.

Power gains vary by engine. The 2.0L TDI common rail engines typically see around 30 HP and 75 lb-ft gains. The 1.9L PD engines see 25-35 HP gains depending on the variant. The 3.0L V6 TDI can gain 65+ HP and 95+ lb-ft. Higher stages with supporting modifications yield even greater gains. Contact us for specific figures for your vehicle.
