Thanks, I don't need my vin looked up, but I just wanted you to know that site doesn't work for us mere mortals.

I am pretty sure PQ has an early VIN.

PQ took deliver early so his car is most likely under 30k, the question remains on if his car has ever been flashed or not.

It's not working for me either. Which is strange, it use to. I got the link from another thread where everyone was using it. It must have been locked down to dealers recently. If PQ needs his VIN looked up, I can check with my neighbor that I know has access.

have you even invested in a scan tool yet,, pick one up at your local parts store,, at least one that has live data,, it will at least give you the basics of what is going on

look at your LTFT and STFT (long and short term fuel trims) and see what they are doing,, this will tell you alot!!

what did you use to extend your map sensor harness to the rear of the supercharger intake, did you use your original map sensor from your intake manifold or was there a map already installed on the supercharger, and is it also reading correct on the scan tool. and is the small vacuum port plugged on the back of the supercharger by the map sensor

The one that came with the SC should also be able to give him that info and catalog it at the same time.

right,,, so whats the problem,, give us some codes and data!!

no one can fix a fuel injected vehicle with the only thing we know is" there is some smoke, some popping and it dies" ,,lol give us some numbers , some data logs,, whats the map reading at idle, whats the maf reading,, what is the LTFT , ,,,

So can someone look up my bin and see if it has been flashed? I know my car is under the 30k #. I have not had a problem with the ax but did have the heater hose and battery cable issue fixed. Would they have flashed then?

The $150 scanners are a great tool, I used mine to keep and eye on my coolant temp while warming it up without having to look inside the car every minute. The fuel trim data should be able to tell us exactly when it tries to change modes.

The only problem I have with the scanner that came with my SC is that it didn't see my ECU the other day after the car was tuned with an HP Tuner, I need to check again. That's why I'm glad I have a regular scanner.

Lets hope this is his problem and he can put some lipstick on that beautiful beast of his and enjoy some boost, and snap some more pictures of Bonnie and the Maggie!

The first big OS update was end of Oct 2009. I remember my Diablo and other handheld tuners were in limbo until they updated their software during that time... At that time we had to make sure the dealerships didn't flash w/ the new OS or our handhelds would be down until they got the update.

Nice post GMRULZ...

Does the O/S problem block any handheld reprogramming? I'm just thinking if PQ already had LT's, CAI, and no cats, probably already retuned at least once before. Would the O/S problem have showed up then?

No it took about a month for the handhelds to catch up... once you downloaded the new update they handled either OS...

I never had my first car flashed...(mainly for this reason). then updated the Diablo software and it still worked fine even when I transferred to the new car.

yeah that is exactly what I have been saying...When the computer starts running its tests and the ltft and stft are bouncing thru their tests something is telling the ECM to adjust fuel and it throwing it way off and causing it to shut off or stall. Once you find the parameter that is off you can add or deduct fuel at those points and then when the test happens it does not overcompensate the wrong way. Its hard to explain without being able to show the screen where all this is shown and mine is done on a HP tuner anyway..but they all have pretty much the same logging screen showing this as its running.

Here is what I said and the fix. not sure if your problem but something worth checking:

One thing that is very important that we found out the hardway. Please read the following as it is very important, I would assume for almost any blower install but this was definetly the case with my Whipple. I had taken off work to do this build w/ my friends, the first thing we did per whipples instructions was try to dowload the superchips tune in the car. did not work. Instead of calling whipple then we chose to continue with the job, pretty much had to get cracking as 1 freind took the day off too to help. We got it all done and attempted to install the tune again, called superchips that sat morn and no one was there, spoke to Jeff at Whipple who sent us some HPtuners tunes as we had plans on doing the fine tuning w/ HPtuners since my car is not stock and the superchips tune was for stock. Once the car went into closed loop it would not stay running. We tried everything, nothing worked my tuner came over no dice. Called superchips mon morning they said my Operating system in my computer was not supported by them. I have an early 2010 VIN ends 12,546 and I have never had an update done by GM to my PCM/TCM. My tuner tried and tried to get it to stay running w/ tuning in HPtuners. However, there were tables missing from my PCM that were in other peoples Whipple tunes who sent them to us trying to help me. Thanks again everybody. Well the table that was missing is the Air/Fuel Ratio Analysis program. Its not in the old OS, but is in the new OS from GM. I can`t understand why GM shipped cars w/ out this table. I guess they did a patchwork to get them to run NA, but boy it sure won`t run w/ the blower. Runs fine is open loop, hits closed loop let of on the gas floods out and cuts off no matter what you do. So I took the car to my dealer freind, had to tow it, they flashed it. Starts up runs and drives fine. Disabled AFM and drove it home. Crazy. So the moral here is if you have an older VIN w/ no updates, go weeks in advance and get your car flashed by the dealer w/ the updates. I have been through this pain for you. Don`t make the same mistake....Lol..

I have indeed had the Flash from the dealer. At least they told me they were doing it and I had to wait for a while. I have my dealer do all of my services. So I am definitely up to date. Damn good info though.

Sure did. I got excited reading it but I've had all the dealer updates.

Hopefully, it is just in the tune itself and he can adjust it so the tests dont attempt to pull as much out..Or maybe just the front 02 sensors turned off or something. You are so patient with all of this...I probably would have been across the county in Tx having Andy checking it out for me by now.
Logistics. This city just doesn't have any shops. Much less good shops. At least none that seem to want to be found.

I checked it. I have the single number blade. I was hoping.

Had the flash.

It would be very rare to have not already had this done..If I remember this only had an effect on 30000 and under vins but cant be certain on that...sunday morning brain freeze and too lazy to look it up.

Good point to raise though. Once you have a tune installed place tape over your obdII with a warning to the dealer not to flash unless they talk to you.

They will load a flash over the top of your tune and set back to stock and then you wont be going anywhere. In my case I am converted to E85 and the car would not even start on a stock tune and would be dangerously lean.

All I have is the SCT.

Got codes

P0171 = p1070 fuel trim malfunction, lean condition.

P0300 = P0300 Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected

P0650 = DTC P0650 set indicates an improper voltage level on the output circuit that controls the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)

I had it tuned before but just a mail tune mainly to get the 02s turned off.
