Chip tuning for Mercedes Axor 1823 231hp (170kW) 810Nm ECU
Mercedes Axor (I (2005+)) 1823 231hp (170kW) 810Nm — premium diesel engine of the commercial segment of the Mercedes-Benz Group AG (Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Maybach, Smart, EQ) group (Германия, 1926). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 231 to 265 hp (+34 hp, +15%) and torque from 810 to 930 Nm (+120 Nm). Diesel engines built in 2005 — the era of classic Common Rail without strong encryption.
4MATIC all-wheel drive is Mercedes' signature system, fitted to most models. The Mercedes-Benz Group AG (Daimler AG until 2022) comprises Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Maybach, Smart and the EQ line. AMG is the performance division of Mercedes (since 1967), building engines on the 'one man, one engine' principle in Affalterbach. The factory calibration on Mercedes diesels is conservative, leaving headroom for Stage 1 while preserving engine life. DPF/SCR with AdBlue is standard on all Euro-6 Mercedes diesels. On older Mercedes diesels, Stage 1 is flashed over OBD with no complications.
Mercedes is one of the most protected brands in the chip tuning industry in terms of encryption. The Mercedes community in Europe has a large pool of available Stage files for the standard models. In the Mercedes commercial segment, Stage 1 focuses on torque. On modern high-output Mercedes, Bench reading is often required because of the encryption. The Mercedes premium segment is a high-output platform with Stage 2 potential. High-output Mercedes engines are premium-class with solid headroom for Stage 1.
