I guess the Recall VA7 is not available for the new Ecodiesels?…but it sure cured the throttle response (and cold sluggish pedal) on my 2016 truck.
I was putting this off because my truck ran fine except for the lag. Wish I had done it earlier. My truck runs like a new vehicle now.

This will be my first time ordering a new vehicle. I guess I got lucky buying my 2016. It was in a nearby dealers lot and I just bought it the way it was outfitted. As it turns out, it was exactly what I needed. I know there have been some problems with earlier trucks, but the only issues that I...
