So, it is confirmed that it is the 3/36 that covers the timing cover leak. The second dealer confirmed that the cover is in need of repair, as it is an actual leak not a little sweat that can be put off in his opinion.

I am very nervous to have this done but better now under warranty than not


They are still diagnosing why the seats wont heat up but both lights come on and do not blink to indicate an issue

Nice
Is that the code word if you want the more aggressive throttle?

Actually my tremor has the 6.7 powerstroke with 3.55s. Pulls like a freight train.
I'm thinking that we might be confused with another inmate that recently grabbed a new F250 Godzilla. I think he has a Raptor too.

Ordered the tune last night and was in my inbox this afternoon....to my surprise they sent me a performance AOT and a Tow Safe AOT tune. I thought I was only getting the one tune. I'll get em loaded up soon!

well, the truck is under the knife and being torn down to fix the timing cover leak. asked about the updated parts and my service advisor said he would see what he can do.......... no word on the progress for the cover or the heated seats. Makes me so nervous the truck will be broken down and put back together...... am I nervous for nothing?

I loaded up the performance tune last night and right out of the box the shifting is by far the best as far as smoothness. It's like the truck didn't even have to learn. With the 5* tunes shifting is a little rough until the truck learns a bit. This is the first GH tune I've ran so I can't compare their tune with out the juice pedal revision but this tune feels really strong and pulls very strong all the way through. I haven't got crazy and done a WOT run but was still seeing just under 18 psi boost. My OAR quickly adjusted up to -0.67 unlike my 5* 91 tune took forever just to get to -0.14 on same tank of fuel. I had them set my fans to kick on between °195-°200 ECT with the °180 tstat. It's cool to have a "custom" AOT that utilizes all your mods. This AOT is WAY stronger and feels WAY better than my 5* AOT. Sport mode feels strong and smooth without harsh shifts. If anyone is on the fence about trying these tunes it's time to jump off and jump on the GH train

Out of curiosity it’s not like stock shifting is it? As far as the smoothness? Is it at least firm and crisp in sport mode and/or wot?

I’m beyond happy with the shifting of my 5 star tunes (regular driving is like a cvt transmission, don’t even know it’s shifting) but I am several revisions in, shifts amazing regular driving or WOT but with that being said once this warranty is up, which at the rate I’m going won’t be crazy long, I think gearhead will be the next tune I try just for the hell of it.

I was told by a long time member on here the Gearhead is a jack of all trades master of none, he meant that in a good way.
I’m curious about this new juiced throttle since he also said with him knowing me I would be missing the low-end torque of my 5 star tune but that was prior to this "juiced throttle"

At any rate $300 ain't cheap but it ain't a lot of money either so when the time comes I’ll probably just grab one if I like it I like it if I don’t I’ve wasted much more money than that on things I’ve never used more than once. Mm
