Opel Combo (2011) 1.3 CDTI 75 hp — mass-market diesel engine of the passenger segment of the Stellantis group (Германия, 1862). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 75 to 95 hp (+20 hp, +27%) and torque from 180 to 225 Nm (+45 Nm). This engine ships with different ECU variants: Bosch EDC17C18, Bosch EDC17C19, Bosch EDC17C59. The flashing method is determined by the specific unit: OBD, Bench or Boot mode. In the CHIPOK database: 6 configurations · 3 ECU variants. A diesel built in 2011 — the Tricore ECU era; OBD flash works on most production revisions.

Opel has been part of the Stellantis group since 2017 (formerly GM Europe). Opel and Vauxhall (UK) are the same line-up under different names. Opel OPC is the performance division, producing high-output turbo versions. DPF/SCR with AdBlue (BlueHDi) is standard on Euro-6 Citroen diesels.

Within Stellantis, ECUs are standardised, so Opel files (from 2017 on) often work on Peugeot/Citroen. The Opel community in Germany and the UK generates a large volume of Stage files. On older-generation Opel models, Stage 1 is done via OBD without bench. On naturally aspirated Citroen engines, the main effect is on throttle response. Low-output Citroen engines are city units, and Stage 1 is safe.
