Re: 2015 Ford F159 3.5 Ecoboost Tune Problem
One thing is certain out of all the canned tunes I have tried Diablosport by far made the most power .
Re: 2015 Ford F159 3.5 Ecoboost Tune Problem
On that point I agree. The truck definitely had a noticeable increase in response and power, right up until the time the pedal went completely dead and I had to idle into a parking lot to restore it to stock!

While i dont live anywhere near florida. i am willing to spend a weekend tuning and testing and sending results. Let me know if this would help you guys in any way. i was one of the ones with the dead pedal issue after it working perfect for a week. Whatever it takes to get this fixed and working.

Please update! I tried my I1000 2 days ago on my 2015 F150 3.5 ecoboost, idled for about 3 minutes (anal about oil temperatures), & had no throttle pulling out of driveway. Loved this product on my 5.3L colorado, would like to have it for this F150!

Re: 2015 Ford F159 3.5 Ecoboost Tune Problem
i figured i would give you guys an update so you don't assume we are ignoring you. we believe the root problem is with in ford itself. i'll take an moment to explain. as some of you may or may not be aware that in ford land there can be one specific vehicle, in this case a 2015 F150 eco boost, but yet there be 15+ pcm "stratagies" whenever ford changes something in the code no matter how big or small, it shows up as a new strategy.
all of the deal peddle issues we are having (and there are only a handful) are with one specific cal ID. There is SOMETHING going on with within ford on that certain cal id as ford has released more that 20 updates to that specific strategy. They are obviously trying to "fix" something up there in good old Dearborn but we don't know what yet. we had one customer who got the newest update available and reported no dead peddle for over a week. but it did come back. so what ever ford is fixing seems to go hand in hand.
the reason that other tools are not running into this problem is the very reason why our tool is better. other brands do not take your specific cal ID, change it and put it back in. they take THEIR own cal ID (what ever they choose) and just blast it into the pcm. this alone is why our tool is the only one that cannot be detected on warranty stuff. we use your cal id and we put your cal id back. it is also why our tool makes WAY more power than any other tune and that is because we are not limited to a generic cal id limits.
he have a truck scheduled to come in later this week. once we have our hands on it and have the problem in front of us. things will progress faster.

Any news on this? Been holding on to my InTune for a while hoping this issue gets fixed, but not really getting a good feeling off of this board. See more and more people reporting the problem, and see where the issue is being worked, but not seeing any results!

Well, we had a truck here, and tried for days to replicate this, and could not.
It left yesterday, and he apparently lost throttle this morning, but the truck is 4 hours away. We really need a local example...

Is DiabloSport allowing refunds since this device does not work as advertised to our vehicles?

Re: 2015 Ford F159 3.5 Ecoboost Tune Problem
So do you have any idea what is wrong? I mean is there anything I can look for or try to check to help figure this out? Is there any certain PIDs I can check to help see if something is acting up? I checked both app PIDs and they are working normal and the tp moves with the key on engine off but when you start the vehicle it quits working the accelerator pedal potions PID still reads normal just no movement from the throttle body
Re: 2015 Ford F159 3.5 Ecoboost Tune Problem
Another question I have is after reading thru a couple of there it seems like everyone I see has a xlt. I could be wrong on that but if it is could it be something to do with the different instrument clusters? Or something that is different with the xlt?
