I drove a car that had a Pedal Commander installed yesterday. The throttle response was night and day and it was like driving a completely different car. It painted a smile on my face every time I romped on the gas. I was wondering if anyone has installed one on on their Silverado (previous/new gen)? 

 

I do not work for Pedal Commander

I do not sell Pedal Commanders

Im asking if anyone has installed one because I've heard they work better on some cars than others...I dont want to waste my $$$ if they dont work well on Silverados.

I have one on my 17 Sierra, definitely makes in more responsive and you can dial in how much response you want. They have great customer service also. My controller was all scratched so I emailed them

Not sure if I'd want a better response. The Ford F-150 had really mushy gas pedals which I got very used to then drove my friend's 707-hp Dodge Hellcat. I hit the gas pedal and the rear tires smoked f

I have one on my 18 Colorado with the 3.6. It’s set at City -1 and it makes a big difference.

Thanks for the recommendation and the link!

 

Im surprised this mod isnt more talked about and added to the "must have" mod list. Manufacturers have baked in awful throttle response for improved MPGs (including sports cars) which sucked the fun out of most cars.

 

The mod is definitely worth every penny with the smiles it paints on your face...especially since it doesnt void your warranty.

This programmer is much cheaper than Pedal Commander or the other brands.

$180 is not bad if it provides the same result as other competitors.

Not sure if I'd want a better response. The Ford F-150 had really mushy gas pedals which I got very used to then drove my friend's 707-hp Dodge Hellcat. I hit the gas pedal and the rear tires smoked for a very short period of time when I realized what I was doing. Unfortunately, the motorcycle cop was right there and I now have a $470 exhibition of speed ticket.

Is there a way I could make it more mushy? I kind of like that.

Yes... it can increase or decrease the response.

So I guess they have one for the 2019. Can you post a link to what you purchased?

      Thanks!  I figured as such; GM and other manufacturers have used standard parts and harnesses across trim levels and such for decades.  I pulled the blank accessory cover off of my commuter van (a 2016 or so Chevy 15-passenger) years ago and found the plug for a USB outlet.  It wasn't connected to anything, though (I tried swapping in an outlet from another van).  I was a GM Tech years ago (late-90s) and was pretty familiar with my 2006.  I might be wrong, but I view newer vehicles (pretty much anything made in the past 20 years) as being a lot more plug and play.  Meaning, more unused wires and plugs unless you have the Mack Daddy of vehicles.

      not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...

      First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.

      I always drive in Sport mode. With more driving, I am finding the initial response when accelerating is much quicker now🖕 Lou
