More power. Less soot. Zero maintenance headaches.
The 3.0L V6 TDI (CATA engine code, EDC17CP24) in the 2009-2010 VW Touareg and Audi Q7 is a fundamentally capable engine held back by factory calibration that prioritizes emissions compliance over performance. This Tunezilla/Malone ECU tune unlocks what the hardware is already capable of. This is the earlier CATA-generation ECU — Stage 1 and Stage 2 only, no Stage 2.5 exists for this generation. Looking for a 2011+ Touareg, Q7, or Porsche Cayenne (later CNRB-generation ECU with Stage 2.5 available)? See our separate listing.
Tune calibration by Tunezilla/Malone - Canada's benchmark for diesel ECU tuning. Sold and supported directly by Valios Dynamics.

Stage 1 - The Daily Driver Sweet Spot

Stage 2 - More Up Top
Pushes fueling and boost targets beyond Stage 1, with gains concentrated in the upper RPM range. Stock hardware compatible.
Stage 3 - Turbo Upgrade Required
Requires a Garrett turbo upgrade. Contact us before ordering to confirm current dyno figures and hardware requirements for your platform.
Tune Add-Ons
Cold climate idle, hardcut rev limiter, dynamic EGR, glow plug extension, immobilizer delete, left foot brake/brake boost, and DPF/Adblue/EGR/swirl-flap deletes are available as individual add-ons for this platform — select the ones you want alongside your tune.
