removal speed limiter

[dametrans]

i have re rated my mk 7 minibus from 15 seater to 9 seater therfore i can remove tacho and speed limiter, today i went to ford dealers and 3 times they programed it with no limit, however it was still limited 100kilom or62mph, when i took it on road, help please, i should also note that when i even disconnected the tacho it made no diffference

recently our ids computer software has been playing up when re setting speed limits through the service functions menu, which is the quick way. i bet this is what they have tried to do. if they go into vehicle program parrameters, which brings up all the different options the van is equipped with they will be able to select no speed limiting from there. Had to do this quite a few times now.

cheers i will say that to him, is there anyway of knowing if the limit has been increased without taking out on road, garag is in built up area so takes a while to get up to speed

ids computer should say that the new file has been loaded but only real way is to go up the road

The law is for vehichles with 8 or more passenger seats, it is not law for a limiter to be fitted to transits, but 100km/h is still a speed limit for vehichles with 8 or more passenger seats.

So the max seats you can have to exceed 100kmph is 8 including driver.

went back again and went into parameter settings, still no joy, how infuriating

[jacko1611]

hmm maybe a software error with the ids. try somewhere else.

Spent time in both places. When in Dublin most of the M50 was 50klicks (31mph). In leamington you forgot about thetaxi drivers. almost as bad as Brum?

its only 50 klicks if you obey, tut tut tut

Yeah mine keeps bouncing off the limiter at 105mph
Pain in the ass, I reckon I could get over 110 without it.
