The issue is just with the 07 6.0L "Y" motors, i took the crom down until we fix this.

Thanks for the info
And thankfully I read this before installing the new tune cause I do have the "Y" motor.

This is just a prob with the U7194 right?. I have a 7193 on a 2005 GMC with the B code motor and have been running 9r06 for a few months. Do I need to redownload 9r05 to my Predator, and then the truck?

If the software is causing the problem, Is diablo offering to pay for at least the tow or reprogramming the PCM or both?!?!?

I'm not touching mine!, its working just find on the older software.
