Got my Re-Tune today

ggccg · 09-20-2007, 06:21 PM

Got my PCM4Less retune today. Well, actually, I got it last week, but had to send it back because the car wouldn't idle smoothly and was throwing a couple of error codes regarding the fuel mixture.

When they got the unit back, they discovered that somehow, one of the fuel tables got inverted during the burn process. Aren't computers and software fun! Anyhow, they fixed the problem and all is well now. They even sent me a check to reimburse the expense of shipping it back to them.

It really does make a dramatic difference in the way the car performs and they say it will get even better after a hundred miles or so (which will go by quickly this weekend).

Just got back from a long weekend in Key West. Gas mileage is definitely better with the new tune... over 30 MPG for the trip home.
