    Crankshaft positioning sensor and Tone Ring Failure on Eco diesel.

    After some recent research into the fate of my GDE engine and trans tunes if I move ahead with the VB1 and W58, in my personal opinion, the W58 is soley focused on bringing tuned vehicles into compliance. If you have the recalls done, you have to pay GED $100 for the updated compliant tunes...

    RAM 1500 2017 Ecoiesel Tune review after several months

    Hello, I looked around to find a good place for my review, and could not find a spot, so I figured I start a new thread. I’ve had 7 months with my tune and I want to share my experience with the SofaKing tune. I’m 55 years old and old school and not very good with all this new technology so...

    Fair Price for an ECU

    The pre EPA was wonderful. The engine ran smother and cleaner, and the milage increased. It also displayed when the particulate filter was being cleaned (burning off the particulate). The big problem was changing the GDE tuned ECM for the factory tuned ECM whenever you took the vehicle to the...

    What's the best Engine Tune

    Stage 1 will shut off the EGR and you can leave it on the engine OR remove it. GDE tunes are EPA COMPLIANT, so all emissions equipment is intact and operable.

    What's the best Engine Tune

    I see that. I like that idea. It seems each company has good points but it’s missing something. HD seems to be the only complete package. I can tell if there is a downfall to buying a engine tune here, a tranny there and the delete packages elsewhere. It’s perplexing trying to put it together...

    What's the best Engine Tune

    I mentioned HD DIESEL because I think they have the tunes and the delete pipes available as a kit.

    Crankshaft positioning sensor and Tone Ring Failure on Eco diesel.

    Thanks biodiesel. It seems the forum sent some kind of auto link to my email. Anyway yeah 382,000 on this motor with its sole issue being the reluctor or tone wheel failure. That makes it a very “green” engine compared to one where the EGR kills it in half that time. Previous motor had head...

    How to tell if your ECU has been tuned.

    Shouldnt tune it until warrany expires correct? Tuning voids warranty?

    How to tell if your ECU has been tuned.

    The ECU is the computer that runs your engine. An ECU tune is when a company rewrites the software that run the engine and optimizes it. Making it work better. On the Eco Diesel engine, tunes can make a big difference in the mileage, engine life, and power.

    GDP Tuner

    I must be referencing old information / late to the game... I have read the GDE tune turns off the EGR electronically. I have seen a youtube video where the EGR is clean (as well as the engine oil) after thousands of miles using the tune - again must be old information. My goal is to have a...

    GDP Tuner

    I'm sorry I think you are missing my point. I am saying I don't want to throw away $ - but also don't want to overpay. It doesn't make sense to me that 'you get what you pay for' - it is a computer program - it's not vinyl vs leather seats. If GDE can write a program to turn off the egr -...

    GDP Tuner

    ...GDE but can't justify the cost. Are there others that electronically turn off the EGR? This doesn't really make sense, In the world of engine tunes I would say you generally get what you pay for and if it sounds to good to be true it probably is. Too many unknowns on random cheap tuners...

    Help needed after delete/tune

    I purchased an ERG/DPF delete and Engine/trans tune from HD Diesel for my 2014 Ecodiesel. Over the past 2 days I installed a Banks intake, banks throttle delete, the ERG delete, the DPF delete, and then the tunes. After starting the truck and letting run at idle for about 15 minutes I finally...

    EPA Report on Diesel Tuners Leaked

    You refer to and yet denigrate the success of the EPA air pollution controls since the mid 1970's. Vehicle exhaust emissions have been reduced by a factor of several 100's, yet you state that vehicle exhaust is still the big bad source. What you may have missed during the years is the change in...

    Should I buy an Eco-Diesel?

    If you are looking for a low maintenance (fuel, oil, drive) type of vehicle the Ridgeline is for you. If you like to tinker/repair/modify, and maintain the ecodiesel might be your ticket. Read around this forum for engine tunes, if that is something you are comfortable with you will enjoy the RAM
