Low Temp Thermostat Codes
Just checkin on any updates for a fix for the Low Temp Thermostat codes on the LX?
With Cold weather upon us, it is even more annoying than ever! ANY ETA???
Oh and while I have your attention, a second and third issue (BEHIND the low temp thermostat code) would be the aggresive throttle response and the MDS surging...
Got a few over on LX forums, myself included, who still do not like the aggressive throttle response, especially in the SRTs as now it is impossible to lightly press the gas and not spin when the tires are cold!
I still would like to see the throttle resonse either as an option in the tune or two different tunes available, one with and one without...
And I am sure you still hear the MDS surging isue is still apparent and QUITE annoying.
Thats it! You fix the thermostat code and I will be 99% happy with the product, as again, that was one of the reasons I bought the product. The other two issues being fixed will make me 100% happy, but I REALLY need that thermostat code first....
THANKS!

RE: Low Temp Thermostat Codes
I just looked into this and found that the low temp CEL fix is being added in, and some more MDS controls are being worked on as well.
As for the throttle response, we need to look into how to address this as many people really like it....we may just reduce the sensitivity a bit without going back to stock.
Thanks

RE: Re: RE: Low Temp Thermostat Codes
Any ETA on when R19 might be released? (assuming it will have the thermostat code fix in it)....
I think that would be ideal, but unfortunately DS has said that can not be done. They say, it is too much involved to make it an optional item on the menu....AJ_Gil wrote:Speaking as one that likes the current level of throttle response please make it an option if you reduce it.
For me, since it doesnt actually add any performance, only changes the ratio between pedal position and throttle body, it is very annoying, especially when trying to just move up to a stop sign, or pull in to our work bay, just barely touching the gas pedal and they want to leap forward... Others in the great white north have complained they cant keep them from spinning when the rubber is cold as just barely pressing the pedal kicks in way to hard... My wife too has mentioned that every time she tries to pull out she breaks the rear loose...
I Know, I know, just have to learn to control the car again, just us bitchin I suppose... But hey, products like these are built on customer feedback, so there are my reasons for not liking it, it is up to DS what they do with it...
Find a way to make it optional or to offer two different tunes, one with and one without, and we will all be happy!
But more importantly, When is the Fix for the Thermostat codes being released???
i don't like change when throttle response is too aggressive for the climate save that i would use second gear to start out instead of first in slippery weather...
use the stick!
maybe write a cold weather program and charge for it...??
just ribbin you folks! but a cold weather download would be ideal as an add-on while those of us in moderate climate could use say....
a higher stall speed setting? make mine 3000 please.
