In addition he went from factory to GDE. I went from MrTuning to GDE. I feel like that may also play a bigger factor than I was initially thinking. I've had six months to adjust to a different throttle input map.
I have some safety recall warranty work that needs done and a few flash updates...
I really wish it were possible to allow trial runs on the tune for people to report back prior to buying. I say that based solely on the fact that the warm up pattern has been very minor in my situation. The first 10 to 15 minutes of my commute is all neighborhood, very minor hills, and under...
I used to work as a terminal manager for the big guys. They all lose stuff at about the same rates.
Make a copy to be safe. With a new pcm running 200 bucks it's well worth it for dealer visits alone.
IT does, haha. I should probably test it more but I have almost zero reference from stock. I've only used the manual mode a handful of times when descending hills in the snow or steep switchbacks in the mountains.
I'll add it to me list to compare to stock.
They're not miserable to replace. I highly suggest a pneumatic ring gun. Worth it's weight in gold. The hardest part for me was actually getting the plastic side covers off. They bend and twist into place and you think you'll break them.
Agreed. With the 3.92s that's as good as I could hope for at those speeds. Another trip in two weeks and I'll try running it around 70 for comparison. Any slower than that on i65 and someone may take a shot at me.
I also want to try out a set of 285 75 18 after the first of the year. Interested...
A bit over 25mpg on my setup yesterday doing 78mph for 764 total miles. Some variation in speed through Nashville Tennessee but adaptive cruise stays set at 78. Truthfully not sure if I'm on winter or summer blend. I topped off from a known winter blend(17 total gallons of whatever it was)...
It appears to work well in the few situations I've used it. There do seem to be some safety parameters in place that prevent over the top stupid. For example I tried to hold 6th when doing a very slow turn, it beeped at me and forced it down to third. I can also start out in second now if I so...
Good question, @WXman. A couple of things drove me to remove it that they mentioned and one that I had noticed early on.
There was a portion of the intake tube that rubbed the top of the motor. I'm not sure if you noticed that on your truck or not, but I "clearanced" the tube with a hammer to...
I played around with some sharp throttle jabs this afternoon. The manual transmission feeling is more pronounced in the first few minutes of operating from a cold start. Personally, I don't find it overbearing, but keep in mind I've spent a lot of time moving cold tractors(big rig: Volvo...
Yep. I'd love to compare across platforms if possible. I've been making multiple short city trips cold this weekend to play around with that aspect. I have no doubt he's seeing the issue, I'm just curious about any variance between the two vehicles.
Edit* I did get a response from GDE related...
I have my first 1000 miles in at this point, and while I absolutely need to run down several more driving conditions here are my first impressions in a little more detail.
Sound: This is one of the first things I noticed when GDE started up their test truck for me to drive while they were...
I just took mine out to test this issue. Pulled back into the garage 5 minutes ago. I've done a lot of highway so far, but not much in the way of stop and go with a cold drive train.
While I notice the initial snappy throttle response in first gear from a dead stop, I'm not noticing it much at...
Yep. Gde has mine, vs stock, vs another tune. It's a little different from their test truck with the stock goodyear tires on mine, but very close. I haven't received the file yet but I did look it over while up there. I'm sure it'll surface soon enough.
Just like last time ill be holding in depth thoughts until I get 1000 plus on it. Shouldn't take me too long, did the first 400ish today.
First impression can be summed up in a single word: Strong.
In for progress reports. Been putting off my 360 tow mirror swap for months now. Really prefer to have all the features work when I do the install so it looks like door modules are a must.
Haven't pulled the pin diagram, do the new 21+ door modules play nice with the earlier factory door...
