  • Today I review the RENNtech ECU tune for the GLA45 AMG this ECU tune takes the GLA45 from 355hp to 428hp and 332LB-FT to 417LB-FT🤯 The performance from this chip is crazy. RENNtech makes a lot of ECU tuners for multiple brands. If you are looking to get a lot more horsepower out of your engine without sacrificing reliability then you definitely need to look at what RENNtech has to offer.

      Can one use it just for upgrade and not buy and when someone wants his car to be stock he should use it again I am asking because I have 2015 cla 45 amg bone stock just 8000 miles driven and if I buy it new it is very costly and if I go to performance oriented workshop who owns one I can spend less money just to tune it and then drive it and again when I want it to be in stock condition again I should go and and have a stock tune from them

    Hi there! Thank you for putting together this video! I currently have a 2019 AMG GLA 45 and am considering this tune. Now that it's been a few years, how do you feel about the tune? Has it given you any problems? Any further noteworthy observations that you've made? Would love to hear your feedback. Thanks in advance.

    thanks for the review! quick questions: are there different files/modes to select from? do you think this would work well with an aftermarket downpipe, or would you get a custom tune for that? thanks in advance!

    • @Jacobmav
      @Jacobmav  3 роки тому +1

      So there is only the stock mode and then the Renntech tune to chose from. I bet it would be great with an aftermarket downpipe. I personally think the ecu tune is the most worth it and then adding the downpipe would have you sitting well!

    I just got my renntech HHT last week and installed it on my 2015 GLA45 AMG, it really makes the car perform so much better. The ride is actually smoother and there is a lot less lag, plus there is a real noticeable increase in power and sound too

    I also have a 2015 GLA45 AMG and really enjoyed your video and am looking forward to your next video with the dragy times. I just had a question I was hoping to ask you, I have noticed that the dual clutch transmission of the 2015 GLA45 AMG has a bit of a lag or hesitation when taking off from a dead stop. Did you find any difference with respect to this lag after you installed the Renntech hand-held tune? Thanks!

    • @Jacobmav
      @Jacobmav  3 роки тому

      It does still have a slight delay it’s a bit less with added torque. I do think a lot of the delay has to do with the turbo lag on the car. When you launch control it though with the ecu tune on it launches hard!

    I just bought a used 2018 gla45 and love it. I also bought the extended service and warranty for the amg engine and transmission suspension and exhaust. Basically all of the high performance systems.
    Will this void those warranties? I know this is a general question. And I really should ask my dealer however was curious at general enthusiasts opinion.

      It will throw an error code right when you first flash it that the 4matic isn’t working, but as soon as it runs for a minute the error will clear itself. It doesn’t negate any functions. Great tuner!
