Problem with my 7194 and my Z06

Post by manolis-1975 »

Hallo from shiny Greece guys!

I just got my predator 2 days ago and tried to install the tune to my 2006 z06. everything seemed to work fine until i decided to go for a ride. When i put the first gear on and started rolling at about 1800rpm the 1st to 4th sign came up and never went out...as you imagine i could not put any other gear even when i stopped the car!! I shut down the engine and started it again, the 1st to 4th sign was out but when i started rolling the same thing happened. I installed the original tune that i backed up when i first pluged the predator in and everything worked fine. Can you please help me with this problem??
By the way the car has a K&N induction kit and a cat back exhaust system. I use 100octane fuel and i was curious if you can help me out with a more aggressive tune after we solve the problem with the 1st to 4th gear :D

Thanks in advance guys and keep up the good work!!

Best regards

Manolis

Hello Manolis-1975,

if you want more out of the tune when the problem is fixed try this http://www.diablosport.com/index.php?na ... opic&t=917 and hit MonteSS or click my signature link for a custom tune for that 100 Octane. ABout the 1st to 4th problem i cannot help you :$ but the guys from diablo will tune in when they get to work.

Greetings Solid

I forgot to mention that this happens only with the diablosport tune. When i tried to modify the stock tune a little and flashed it into the ECM it worked just fine! Isnt that odd?!

Solid thanks a lot, that was helpful!! As soon as i get this problem fixed ill get down to it! :D

well it isnt that odd because the modify tune only changes the parameters that you select. The Diablo tune has lots more tweaked parameters then you can select. So if 1 of those causes an issus that could be the problem. You cannot tune the stock tune to match the diablo tune ;) There are many more parameters only someone who is an CMR tuner ( name of the tuning software) might do that. So you modifying the tip of the ice berg ;)

You'll have to wait around 5 hours before the diablo guys start working. Where you from? because your in a differanct time zone then the diablo guys. I'm from the netherlands Europe.

Sorry about that i over read it some how :$ Nice to meet you to! I wouldn't change that much if you dont know what you are doing... I have no idea what most of all the parameters are so i keep away from those ;) But if you know what your doing then you should be fine. yet should you wait untill the diablo guys take a look at this. I know they make these performance tune so that 90% of al cars are nicely tuned out of the box. But there can be a problem since no engine is the same. So dont mess around to much because you could destroy your PCM and getting those to greece can be expensive ;) Or just wait untill MonteSS or Mikel come on the forum they are the guys that know almost everyhting. And they are very willing to help.

I'l have to say i'm really new to al this tuning :p my truck is just supported by a couple of days ;) i just adjusted the injector slope by the dslog programme and man it pulling even more than it did :O its amazing. So dont go messing things up ;) You could tune your Z06 perfectly with the 100 octane ;)
