    What did the instruction card say to do? You're the first person to post about it. Mine has been delivered, but I'm at work.

    Interesting. I wonder if we'll have to flash back to stock every time we use the handheld, or if it's a one-time thing?

    EDIT: I'll bet it's to allow the stock ECU to be read by the handheld the first time you use it, to "register" the ECU.

    right now we don't even have open / close hours. I'm working on trying to get everything cleared up, pending / etc regardless of what time it is.

    Also, want to post this again this month is the last month we will be shipping orders. Wait time might extend out past November into 2020. That will give us ample time to clear and update *everything*


    as soon as possible.

    Thanks Hinder! I'll give that one a go, I was just wanting a linear throttle without that huge tip in with a touch of throttle, and then being able to select what gear I want to be in.

    Edit: just swapped it out... much better off the line.

    I've got about 1,500 miles on 2.0 OLE beta base. I really love this tune. It's almost perfect for me. My only issue is the TC shudder/ bumpy road feel on the highway with the half lock shit. If that was gone, well it would be perfect in every aspect. @OVTune is there any chance of this in the future updates

    This is odd. You were running B04 and ovtune 2.0 and gave feed back before. And now asking how to upgrade B03 to B04? Do you have 2 trucks?

    Did you zendesk your findings? If not you should, as Mat has asked us to do so when posting on here about tunes.
    We don’t need this taken away again.
