I would like to say thanks to all who have posted their opinions and blackbear is the winner by a long shot. I have already recieved three emails from justin and i asked him a question but he hasnt had time to reply and im in need of an answer.

 

The 400 dollar deposit that is sent for the cables--- since the cost of the tune plus the PCM and TCM is 420 dollars he says that once you return the cables you get the deposit back. Is their any one who knows if he can keep the 400 dollar deposit and i sent him the rest as payment for the tune and modules. Can any-one answer this question for me.

 

Thanks guys

I can't answer your question but I'm about 30 minutes away from you (New Bern) and the cable and scan tool came in yesterday. I hope to start doing some recording tomorrow. I'm sure Justin will get back with you shortly.

Naw, I don't think that Justin would appreciate that. Anyhow, I'm averaging around 16 mpg. My DIC says I'm getting 12mpg but it's wrong.

It is not a problem for you guys to share the cable. Just make sure that you label the tune logs correctly and you are good to go. PM me or Justin if you have any questions.

The MINUTE Justin (or Jenna) let's me know the EFI Live handheld is available, I will be whipping out the credit card. But first I will need to send my computers back to Nelson to get them unlocked.

Sorry Jeff, no updates as of late. Justin talks to the EFILive folks on a weekly basis, so we will be sure to post up as soon as we hear anything.

 

As far as sharing cables, we have no problem whatsoever, just one of the folks will need to be responsible for the deposit. If you wanted to try to get others to share with you, so you can split the deposit cost, we have no qualms with you posting up on forums to get others to share.

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
