Chip tuning for Renault Captur / QM3 1.5 DCI EU6 95 hp ECU

Renault Captur / QM3 (2019 - II) 1.5 DCI EU6 95 hp — mass-market diesel engine of the passenger segment of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance group (Франция, 1899). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 95 to 140 hp (+45 hp, +47%) and torque from 220 to 300 Nm (+80 Nm). A modern diesel built in 2019 — a generation with encrypted firmware (Tricore TPROT) that often requires a Bench read.

Renault shares platforms and engines with Nissan, Dacia and Mercedes (through technical partnerships). dCi is Renault's signature designation for its turbo diesels.

Within the Renault-Nissan Alliance, ECUs are partly standardised, so some files carry over between brands. On modern Renault models, Bench is often needed for the top models. The Renault community in France and Eastern Europe offers a large pool of ready-made Stage files. Low-output Renault engines are city-segment units; Stage 1 is safe. On naturally aspirated Renault engines, the main effect is on throttle response.
