Diesel Tuning Newcastle
Vehicle-specific ECU tuning developed by Berrima Diesel and professionally installed by Skillen Industries Diesel in Heatherbrae.
We tune for how your vehicle is actually used — towing caravans, carrying loads, daily driving and long-distance touring. The result is stronger low-down torque, improved throttle response and better fuel economy, all delivered through a conservative calibration designed to protect engine reliability and longevity.

Is Your Diesel 4WD Underperforming?
Many factory diesel vehicles leave performance, drivability and efficiency on the table.
If you tow a caravan, camper trailer, boat or work trailer, you’ve probably experienced:
- Sluggish throttle response
- Constant gear hunting on hills
- Poor low-rpm torque
- Higher fuel consumption when towing
- A vehicle that feels like it’s working harder than it should
Generic tuning files often make matters worse by chasing peak power figures rather than real-world towing performance and reliability.
Our Approach
Every tune installed by Skillen Industries Diesel uses proven Berrima Diesel calibrations developed through extensive dyno testing and real-world validation.
Before tuning, we’ll discuss:
- Your vehicle
- How it’s used
- Towing requirements
- Existing modifications
- Future upgrade plans
We then install the correct vehicle-specific file and road test the vehicle to ensure everything performs as intended.

“I’ve been putting off the 3.5hr drive… but Stuart from Skillen Industries came to my doorstep and completed a remote tune on my 2021 D-Max. The extra pickup and smoothness is 100% worth it.”
