Nobody here wants to hear your shit talking. You have nothing to add but mud slinging, go back to DF. We don't do that highschool girly crapp here. Just the facts...:thumb:

Bye now...

Looks to me like you started the high school girly crap.
If it were me; I wouldn't do shit to help you after this.
You sold this truck with a problem and didn't say a word to the buyer. What does that make you?

I'm with Rob here as far as this should have never hit the forum . Instead of saying "ok, that's fine" you should have debated the issue. Chances are rob was going through tons of emails at a time and figured it was going to be something odd and very time consuming as the majority of the time tuners end up diagnosing truck issues for free.... Sometimes tune issues, 80% of the time truck issues.

I simply think it should of been "I don't want to pay that" instead of "ok that's fine" and then it hitting the net.

Just my .02....

Rob is a good guy and a good businessman, he would of taken care of it in a professional manner.

Human...

We can't all be perfect like Mike L....

So from what you said, Rob should just leave the new owner hanging out to dry right??? Now that's some real professionalism, I'm on here trying to make it right...

Just to defend myself here. I did send Rob an email, he said he was going to charge me, initially I said fine, I was still absorbing the comment. I came on here and asked a nonspecific question about tuning adjustments for codes. Everyone said it should have been adjusted free of charge, that is what I wanted to know. I thought that is what forums were for, asking questions you don't know the answers to. I got my answer. I don't try to up charge my customers, so when someone tells me they want me to pay I take that as their word not the first offer, this is tuning we are talking about, not a used car...

Now let this thread die...

Mods please close thread, my issue is resolved...

Leave the new owner out to dry??! You left him out to dry, you sold the truck to him in that condition not Rob, he didn't own and drive the truck for 3 years you did.. That's what is wrong with this damn world everybody is looking at the next person to lay the blame on. Own up to your faults holly hell...

Yea your right. I built the tuning...:rolleyes:

It's all my fault...

What's wrong with this world is no one wants to own up to a mistake. I paid good money for tuning, I did live with it, that's my fault, I admitt that, but that dosen't change the fact that the truck codes and Rob knew it from the start. So it should have come as no surprise it would eventually need a tune adjustment. Like I said earlier it only gave me trouble a couple of times but that's bc I didn't use my truck to tow anything on the highway but a couple of times. I regret not dealing with it at the time but hind sight is 20/20...

THEY ARE..........;)

Got in a local truck with a 68MM and another one with a 72MM and problem solved in less than two hours.

No problem lugging up hills, no problem making target boost, to Rob's credit if he has tuned hundreds as I am sure he has then maybe it has an issue.

They are..............now.

You said "they CANT be tuned with what is currently available"

So what changed? I havent noticed any additional tables LMM that EFILive has added in the past year and a half.

I've just always assumed that tuning had a lifetime warranty against any problems that pop up that are tuning related. The tuning worked fine for the op, but once he sold the truck and the truck was worked differently there was problems that popped up.


Not true and the reason I said what I said!

the truck never really ran like it should have I just delt with it like a moron. When I brought my new boat home from Maryland I had to keep my V2 plugged in the entire time bc my truck would limp every 30 mins or so in heavy interstate traffic. The tune is terrible. No question it is a real safety issue. I admitt I should have addressed it earlier but I never really towed much so it wasnt apressing issue for me...


Once the OP posted this it made no sense to blame Rob as it should have been corrected long ago way before it was sold!



If the OP dealt with the problem for three years then ended up selling the truck in the same condition, and now the new buyer has the problem it's between the seller and the buyer not the tuner.. If this weren't from so long ago or even if he still owned the truck I think it would change the scenario completely...


I agree 100% :thumb:



I'm going to close this on the OP request written here as he feels it has been resolved. I will reopen if Rob would like to add something. Just send me a PM and I will re open.
