Ids

Does anyone with ids know if it's got the axel ratio 3.58. For a euro4 ,

It's not ids that has the 3.58 axle info, that is stored in the vans bcm.

Question should be are there any euro 4 vans with 3.58 axle

I was on phone to Martin on Friday he seems to think there is , I'd rather be sure before I fit the axel

Take a trawl through the viewtopic.php?t=37058 post and see if you can spot the van type and axle combo you're looking for?

Regular IDS functions wont allow any final drive ratio selection in Euro 4 vans ( only Euro 3 like Mk6's ) so it would need programming in by someone who's up to speed with activating Cruise etc..

With that in mind , 3.58 is lowest you can put in the BCM from what i can see on Euro 4 & according to Loots recent experiments .. 3.58 was used in some 200ps Vans..

If you fit a 3.31 axle ( from a Euro 5) to a Euro 4 van then program in 3.58 axle & the Cruise Control will probably work OK.. if significantly wrong cruise may not work correctly & not at all in top gear There is an axle ratio in the PCM as well but that doesn't seem as critical from a cruise functionality point of view .
