I believe the consensus was that the tune is not responsible for blowing a trans because of a high idle as posted in another thread. Of course a crappy tune can hurt a trans. Then again, I know one person here that has lost 4th seven times in six months and his builder is supposed to be great.
sounds like the converter is hanging locked up at deceleration/coming to a stop. The first issue sounds like the 3/4 pack is about to buy the farm.

Well a little update, today I recieved a new tune "without even knowing". and just as I figured it is worst then the last. If I would have been called back to tell him the problem maybe it would have been better!!!

Could all his problems somehow be linked to a impending tranny failure? According to his sig he only has a verter, shift kit, servo and has alot of power going to it.... Maybe all the parts not upraded are about to go pop?

this is a prime example of why i dont run mail order tunes anymore. get someone local that knows what their doing and fix the tune and also check to see if the trans is hurt or not.
Sarcastic funny Moze...I think Greg might have seen yet another lower mileage older old man truck the other day with a dead 3-4 I have to fix.....2005 with 78K. The last two I've done have been 4WD
Hey V, thanks for the text support....next time you're up I'll tell you what I found if you care.
his builder is great and has a proven tranny. Do you even know whats going on with the tune in that truck or are you just flying off at the mouth. Btw Greg went threw it 4 times in a short time as well. AFA you tranny goes it may be taking a dump. If you have friction particles in you valve body, sylinoids, filters its not going to shift right also it could be the converter flairing and if it is then you definatley got trash in it. Sounds like its time for a built unit and new verter
