    Just reach out to Jeff, @TermLimits he'll help put you in touch with a local installer if one is available... My truck has 22,000 miles as well. Get the Valley Runner Tune, you won't regret it!

    Man I keep hearing such great things about the Valley Runner tune and I purchased it, but ever since the vF update I havent been able to get the program to work on my computer. Hoping my emails to zendesk get responded to quicker :(

    Try to uninstall the program and the. Reinstall it. Make sure that your antivirus isn’t blocking it during the process as well

    What is the Calibrate TCU button for if we don’t use it when flashing?

    With the new version coming out I believe there will be more transmission specific maps. I also believe it will cost 4 credits to unlock.

    Matt (OVTune) said over on his forum:

    If you can upload your TCU files, maybe it will help us get 1.3 sooner.

    I was mostly excited about the ultimate tunes. Didn't get those. Haven't actually played with 1.3 yet, so I cannot say.
