Brady,
That is super encouraging. I am very curious to see how my first oil analysis with the GDE tune looks when I change my oil this summer. I am expecting something similar! If these kinds of OA's don't encourage people to find a way to tune I am not sure what will.
Curious how this works for you. A quick google and search on the cummins engine reveals the same EGR related problems as the 3.0. Same with Powerstroke and Duramax. It may not be "quite" as dramatic with the larger engines but it seems to me the only real solution is disabling the EGR
You should be able to do a tune for less than $1000 bucks. If you don't want to lose all possibility of a warranty then a tune you can take in and out would be great. If you are going to do a full delete and remove all the parts it will cost more and be much harder to take in for any kind of...
Had mine done 3 years ago with OptiCoat pro + still looks great and super easy to clean. Couldn't be happier but it was $1000.00 to have professionally done!
Here is a question for tuners.. if were to buy an SKT engine tune installable with their touch screen flash tool could It be used to take out, store, and reinstall the GDE tune from the GDE replacement ECM?
Most people only have purchased one tune so it is really hard to have an opinion on which one is best! I am super happy with my GDE but have nothing to actually compare it too. Maybe there is a better one? who knows.
I haven't read that anyone is "unhappy" with theirs.
Nothing to be leary on the fumoto valve if you are changing your own oil. They are high quality and make oil changes a breeze. They are especially helpful if you like to do oil analysis. I was a little worried about the nylon clip that acts as a secondary safety device so I ordered a couple...
Caveman, I would do the simple things first but am assuming you already did given your experience:
Check the oil
try and reset the counter yourself.
It probably just didn't get reset.
Let us know if the light went off.
Dang, got the timber grove air bags installed today, took about 3 1/2 hours start to finish by my lonesome. They are pretty burly I have to admit. even with only 5 lbs in them they seem to raise the rear about a 1/2 inch or so. Pleased with the install though.... no compressor installed just the...
Every time I look at my oil life indicator the advanced algorithm is as follows:
miles driven divided by 10000 = percent used
100 minus percent used = percent left on oil life rounded to the nearest whole
Gotcha, Maybe that was early on? I have had mine installed for quite a while and can't see why I would need service from them. It should work as long as it is installed in my truck as far as I know unless it got flashed over.
I am neither condemning or praising them just wondering.
