Dealer Toasted My Tune
Posted: Thu May 11, 2017 7:19 pm
Apologies in advance if there is a thread on this already. I couldn't find it. If there's one, please provide link...
Took my car in for some warranty A/C repair. Bad actuator. Didn't expect dealer to touch my PCM since the work was A/C related.
I have a feeling they flashed my PCM anyway. I went to make an adjustment to my 93 tune (throttle boost to 3%). Wrote to vehicle, turned key off, then on. No problems. Then I went to start it...
Engine barely started. Error codes everywhere. Timing was WAAAY off. Car basically un-drivable. Thankfully, I was able to restore original backup, and it's fine, however, I can't install a default 91 or 93 tune on the car without everything getting screwed up.
Anyone have a clue as to what's going on?
