Finally got the wheels, tires, and Cognito level on:

hey alaska...love the rig. looks almost like mine but i have the 114's 275/65/18. Your tires are taller and a little narrower. I assume you needed the leveling kit for them to fit. do they still rub? i'd love to go just a little taller on my next set of tires.

Looks good. So I guess you decided not to paint them. I saw the thread on TMC.

 

I still might, I just had to get them on for now :rollin:

Here is my 2010. 600 miles young.

I know it's a little dirty, but that will most likely be unavoidable for her entire life.

Thanks 07HDCC for the wheel/tire choice. I think it looks bada$$. :chevy: I have to lift the front a little though, it rubs a little too much for comfort.

Looks great! What tires did you end up getting?

I went with BFGoodrich, same size as yours. From looking at the pics of them next to yours, I think the leading edge treads are a little more 'square' than the rubber on yours, which is causing my rub. It's been a couple hundred miles on them now and the rubbing only happens at full turn forward and reverse. It is already better than it was. Some of the plastic inside the well is rubbed thinner. I will probably just dremel it out a little or maybe crank the keys just a hair, I am sure it will solve the problem.

It is an 'acceptable annoyance' b/c the truck looks so much better than it did stock.

My biggest problem now is the stupid TPMS. Not necessarily the light, b/c I am already used to that, but everytime I start the truck, I get the "SERVICE TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM" message on my odometer display, which requires me to press the trip reset button on the guages to remove it and see the mileage. Gets old real fast, and also, my truck is a 'work truck', so there are a number of occasions that my boss/coworkers have to drive it for short distances around a site, and they always say that it is annoying, so that in itself is annoying.

Any thoughts on a work around for that? I know this isn't the place, but I already wrote it, so there it is.

Did you put the sensors on the new wheels? If not I'm not sure there is much you can do. I doubt a dealer will disable the system for you or even if they can. Maybe someone else can chime in. I did manage to get my dealer to lower the threshold for the rear tires. I can now run as low as 55 psi without the stupid light.

I did not put new sensors in the new wheels. I had them put together before I read about how it couldn't be disabled. I just assumed everything could somehow be disabled, but apparently this is one of the very few things that cannot be undone. I will most likely just order new sensors and then wait until I get so sick and tired of looking at the warning that I'll have someone just pull 'em and put them back on again for what I imagine is just the cost of a mount/balance, so it should be too bad.

Oh well, live and learn.

Since I bought my nerf bars (b/c yours looked so 'right' on your truck), 3 guys I know, 1500, 2500, and a F-150 are having them put on their trucks. For some reason, no one has that style around here and people looked at mine like I had them custom made or something.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
