2016 Jeep Wrangler Tuning

Post by BHaner »

I have a fairly well built 2016 Wrangler with the 3.6L engine.

I have been having some issues with throttle control while in low range.

The issue seems to happen when I try to climb an obstacle. It feels like torque management or traction control is turning off the power. I can floor it and nothing happens.

I found that if I roll onto the throttle just right it will allow the RPM's to climb. But it is not predictable or consistent.

I have made sure that traction control is off. I also have a kill switch for the ABS/ESP system that doesn't seem to help.

Does Diablo Sport offer any tuning that will solve this issue?

Here are a few videos that show the issue. You can hear the engine noise change when it happens. Almost like there is a cylinder being killed or timing being changed.

Its not anything I have seen or experienced or heard form other users.
That said, once the tunes are loaded the intrusion of TM and ESP are greatly reduced, so its worth a shot.
Try it, if you dont think it did what you want within 30 days, return it for a full refund ;)

We offer the i3 for the Jeep on the Diablo brand which supports custom tuning, or for a more Jeep specific experience, the Superchips flashpaq for Jeep is a great option packed with Jeep specific features.
