    @OVTune , have you gotten your hands on the 2019 M/T OEM calibration yet?

    If so, have you noticed anything significantly different in the code WRT 04A71?

    I was suppose to send it to him but Canada Post went on strike and I never received the tuner in time before going back to work. :(

    Windows update caused the direct update to not work, so he's emailing all dongeless files.

    @OVTune posed earlier on the alpha thread that he will post M/T dongle files after he is done emailing.

    How does this windows update affect new users? I just received my ovtune/dongle and haven’t re-tuned truck yet.

    It doesn’t. The windows update just made it so he has to email everyone instead of the downloader he was making. Flash the files as normal

    If you just received it you are probably got a dongle-less kit unless you purchased the kit used. The original dongle kits consisted of the USB flash drive(dongle) the Tactrix cable and the OBDII adapter.

    The windows update did not affect dongle users,only dongle-less users.

    ETA Guys with M/T's are still waiting on files for 1.05,keep an eye on @OVTune blog for the dongle update to post.

    Talking with @MOC221_ , I don't think the coasting throttle angle reduction was in there. From the OVT blog:

    "The issue with this is something that many owners complain about. Lack of effective engine braking. When the engine is decelerating, the engine load drops. But in the stock ECU, the valve timing target will still use the column of 15% engine load (same as low load drive range). As a result you're still in "Atkinson" and the cylinders are bleeding off pressure. Therefore, you're getting less compression to help with engine braking. With our EROM table we can take control of deceleration and target valve timing (like below) that helps increase cylinder pressure, and increase engine braking. Unfortunately the only true benefits of this will be for trucks that have manual transmissions due to the automatics programming logic to drop to higher gears when you let off the gas. (That's why the truck rpm will drop so low when you let off the gas). Only during downshifting will it ever come to use, but from what we have tested this leaves us with a maximum RPM range of 2000 rpm and below."
