Yes - the VM Motori 2.8L is a European-engineered commercial diesel with strong internals and a proven reliability record across multiple commercial vehicle applications. Stage 1 calibration stays within safe operating limits, and we log EGTs under load to confirm safe operation before delivering the tune. For a commercial vehicle that needs to work reliably every day, our conservative approach ensures the tune improves performance without compromising the engine's longevity.
Yes - LDV diesel operators consistently report 5–8% improvement in highway fuel economy after tuning. For a fleet vehicle covering high kilometres, this compounds significantly over a year. More torque at lower RPM means the engine operates less hard at cruise, which reduces fuel demand and can also reduce engine wear from lower sustained load. For fleet managers, the combination of efficiency and performance improvement makes tuning a strong commercial decision.
An LDV T60 with the VM Motori 2.8L diesel typically gains 80–110Nm of torque and 30–45kW on Stage 1. In a commercial ute, the torque gain is what matters most - it improves towing on grades, makes loaded driving less laboured and reduces the frequency of downshifts in hilly terrain. For a vehicle used daily for trade or commercial purposes, the improvement is immediately practical.
Yes - the Deliver 9 diesel responds well to calibration, with torque gains that meaningfully improve its loaded performance. Commercial vans often operate at or near their payload limit, and the extra low-end torque makes a practical difference to drivability when fully laden. We calibrate conservatively with EGT monitoring under simulated load to ensure the engine operates safely under the demanding conditions commercial vans face in daily use.

2020 Audi RS6 - Takapuna
I brought my diesel ute in looking for more pulling power, and the team at Auto Tuning absolutely delivered. The difference in low-end torque is massive; it now hauls heavy loads up hills without breaking a sweat. The biggest surprise has been the improvement in fuel economy during my daily commute. A proper, professional tune.
