Hi guys, i'm still new with what can all be done programming a gas truck as i had a diesel for the past few years but i got rid of the duramax for my 2010 ltz 1500. I still have the predator that is vin locked to my diesel and i was just wondering if i can get it reflashed to be used with my new truck? I have no use for the predator the way it is and i doubt i can get anything for it anymore, just curious what my options are. The mod bug may have bit me today! I really don't like how these trucks hesitate so bad during take off, i've had this truck for several months and i still can't get used to that. Any suggestions are welcome, just let me know! Thanks in advance!

I would say you are out of luck on that one. I think you can have Diablo unlock the tuner for a fee. But even if it was not VIN locked, I doubt it would be compatible with your gasoline powered truck considering it was originally intended for a diesel.

no... it can not be made into a different model predator to work for your gas truck... you would need to buy the correct 7194 model predator, or better yet - the Trinity - for the new truck..

 

you need to contact diablosport about getting it unlocked/reset...

 

then you could sell it to make some money to put towards the new correct programmer for the new truck... ;)

 

and yes you could get something for it... people sell used ones for about $175....

Canuck... yours is too old.. . won't take the newer, bigger crom revision update files - which are needed for 2010/2011 vehicle support - so it's no good for him...

 

highest revision update yours can go to is 9r10...

      2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 8l90

      I'd change the fluid and start there.   198F is nothing for the 8L90.  They typically operate 180-200F stock.

      2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 8l90

      By LCH14 · Posted

      Looking for help!   2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 5.3l 4x4 8l90 61k miles - truck is in Arizona, was over 110 outside on Monday when this whole situation transpired. Never had any major issues with transmission until this point:   Truck sat outside my construction office for approx 1 hour idling before I realized, ran around the job site wrapping some things up for the day and then left. Went to get food and sat in the drive through for approx 30 minutes idling. As soon as I pull out of the drive through and onto the main road, rear tires lock up and feels like transmission fell out of the truck. Shifted to park, shut the truck off and tried again, same thing happened. Was able to reverse into parking lot (truck slammed into reverse). Let the truck sit turned off for 10 minutes before trying again, but it continued to happen. Towed truck back to my house. Highest the trans temps reached was 198.   Friday, after work I start looking into the situation. Truck sat in my driveway untouched all week. Truck is now driving like normal, transmission doesn’t get over 185 degrees when trying to heat it up. Got up to 60 multiples times with no issues, no issues accelerating, only down shifted hard into first one time at 185 degrees. Does anyone have any insight? Never through a code or a check engine light. Truck has never been used to tow either. No transmission services at this point.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      Atlas won.   I know better, but I did it anyway. I took a compressed air line with a chuck and rubber tip and jammed it in the open EGR port. The port was clear as far as I could see, and as far as I could poke with a flexible wire, but that doesn't mean it's not clogged.   Compressed air blew back at me along with a cloud of black. Oops. I didn't have the rubber tip seated in there all the way. Jammed it up in there some more and squeezed the chuck. PSI was set to 120. Poof! It blew back at me again. Third time...pfffffttssssssspffffffsssfffffff, face full of carbon, and then, kind of a thud..and the air stopped spraying back at me. It was now exiting the exhaust with a low shhhhhh sound as it flowed through the pipe. Something broke free. I pressurized the port again, and air flowed.   Made my day.   Long story short on this problem, it's fixed. Something was really blocking the EGR passages down low, and compressed air blew it apart. I don't recommend this as who knows what debris was sent where. But it's allowed me to move forward, mentally, and onto the next problems I need to get this little S-Blazer going down the road properly again.

      Looking at ordering a '26 WT because I want a std cab, std bed

      Your truck lowered, looks good. I'm happy with the stance on this. I may need the extra ground clearance given my location/situation.
