PTU blew.. (confirmed PTU now)

I know it was asked but I could not find a response. Did the strategy code change after if came back from the dealer?

Would a compromised Torque converter cause an issue like this?

the STRAT was the same, no fashes just a battery disconnect.

I have no idea.  the tune log showed a tq error 7 as the initial error.  then it goes nuts.

@ - T-SHO due post a PIC of the actual work order to see exactly what was performed! Maybe this will help us dissect the overall procedure performed! thanks.  Z

OK we have update(s)

I'm glad i am a backup nut job.  they were able to recover the stock tune from mt .BEF backup files that i make EVERY SINGLE time AJP sent me a update.

The SCT lady who was very helpful did say that the device should not have been able to pull a bad file FROM the ECU to the SCT device. but also said in the same sentence that it may be possible if the car goes from running to accessory mode.. and you try it there.  I might have done  that in error as i was swapping back to the 2 bar before reverting to stock.

it is idling correctly and no wrench codes.  i will try to rev it after it idles for a while,  and then drive it if no codes pop up.

Heh .. I am not entirely sure what they considered dirty as I cleaned it no less than 4 weeks ago myself

As to the car now that I'm running fine on stock I can confirm that there is zero issues with the stock performance..


The only way I can get the behavior to occur now is to turn hard left or right and floor it, but that's always been the way these cars behave

EDIT :: i will wait on brads thoughts.  im leaning towards from scratch retuning it.  but its up to him.

Brad has built a fresh tune based off of the last good REV,  i will try it out. in a little bit.

I predict the issue will still occur,  I think it is the TQ converter as a random topher guess.

[TopherSho]

Testing is NOT complete.  But so far the new tune is running well.  Rain has stopped me from testing any further.

Rain?  So your SHO does not have AWD? 

[SHOme]

I think I concur.

WoT with the 100% meth in the rain *MMIIGGHTT* skew my results a tad when trying to determine TQ issues on the fronts

Since they serviced and flushed etc your Trans.

What is the fluid level at ?

Isnt the recommendation here to slightly over fill these units?
