should i flash my new u7164 into my 08 or wait for revision?

Post by hoondog »

I just purchased a u7164 predator for my 08 ford. When i tried to flash my truck it came back with a message that i may need a reflash of the unit. I went to diablo's home page and checked my version and it was a 9r01. I downloaded the new 9r07b program to my tuner and my question is i just had my truck reflashed by ford as many have recently done due to particulate filter issues and should i go ahead and try to download the latest revision or wait for a revision through Diablosport first. I don't know if it will even flash to my truck at this point as i may flash codes again. I wrote down the code issues but they are home and i am not(darn work) . I am new to the tuning and diesel side but couldn't resist a Diablosport predator after reading so many good reviews from posts and diesel magazine articles. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and keep up the great posts...They are very helpful for newbies....

Dont bother, if you were in for the recall flash, it is not yet supported.

Wait for the next revision.
