If I update my trinity will this work now too? I see 1r13s as the most recent revision.

Thanks

Is there issues with the download or is it just not working on some trucks. Should I be scared to try and download it.

No issues on i2, it's not released in Trinity yet. Just update your tool first and then you can read it.

Ok guys, if you've sent in transmission reads to us, go ahead and update your tools and you're ready to tune.

zach, i think i bricked my i2 trying to update last night. It never updated no matter how i tried it and now it isn't recognized by my computer or my car. It starts up with power, but most of everything is grayed out and i can't use those buttons. it's like the hard drive portion of the tool is missing, but the tool still powers on. Please help!

Zach,

Any timeframe when you'll have the update for the Trinity? From what I was reading on the website both the Trinity and Intune share the same tuning parameters and options. Would seem fairly straight forward to implement on the Trinity as well.

Also, have you guys seen a big improment on the 8 speed after tuning it? I know reading on other forums a lot of guys like me have been complaining about GM's crappy shifting with this transmission. To me it seems to be the tuning because mine doesn't always shift bad. Sometimes it's smooth as butter and other times it jerks.

Thanks
Zach

While the Trinity and Intune share the same tunes and options, they are two totally different animals when it comes to implementing capabilities. We are working to have it in there in a couple of weeks, just a matter of getting it in the tool and passing it through out in house testing.

The improvements are quite nice with the preloaded tunes. Firming up the shifts and knocking down the shift times.

So update the programmer then install the download in to the truck. Do we then still have to send you the file for the transmission.
