Has anyone been able to tune a 2009.
The mod bug keeps biting me

 

Msg Psykostevo. He may have answers for you as he is a tuning machine.

 

bump for someone to crack the 09

 

HP Tuners already has unlocked the 09...you just have to email them to get the update..they haven't released one for the public yet

 

ya but HP Tuners doesn't provide my powertrain and ect warrenty........not wanting to risk my dealership voiding my warrenty.

 

Listen to da man!!!^^^^^ hes tuning my s/c dis weekend...

 

What are you doing in this section then if you dont want to tamper with your warranty, the general chit chat section is above.

 

it's ppl like u that give css.net a bad name, grow up and don't act like an ******* just because i want to keep my warranty.

 

Unless your dealer is a real dick, they aren't gonna turn you down for modding. Vehicle sales are to poor right now to be pissing someone off. I have meth injection, 2.8 pulley, CAI, 60# inj and hp tune and they still fix my stuff. Just go ask them straight up if they care.

 

tunning ur car voids ur warranty lol
just buy another ecu and tune that 1

 

Yeah peach!!

that's what I was going to suggest

 

yea i've thought about the whole get another ECU but overall i just can't get it out of my head that changing the tune back and fourth back and fourth over and over......it just can't be good for the engine and the supporting components. I'm holding out for a GM stage tune or else I'll look into talking to the service manager about having and HP Tune on my ss/tc.

 

why dont you just get hp tuners. when you need to take it in to the dealer you can just load the stock program it doesnt take long to reload the programs back and fourth.

 

Sorry bro but thats the deal, read the warranty booklet and you'll see. Even racing that gm basically wants you to do can void your warranty.
"Did you go full throttle sir"
"Yes i did, it was a blast... then the engine exploded, please fix it"
"Sorry sir but the warranty booklet specifically says you're not allowed to do that, warranty denied"

 

I agree ... I am in the same situation as you I have an 09 and want to tune it but I am still in the "do I want to risk the warranty boat" Factor.

BAN !!! If your really want to call GM headquarters and refuse to get off the line you can throw in the someone test drove it before i bought it and didn't pay attention to the break in procedures. ....

OWNED

 

My salesman drove it after i did and he did so without me being in the car, beyond that a had a tire issue and the lube tech who drove it into the bay redlined it down the lot in 1st gear without asking.

 

going to Hahn's on Tuesday for a read and or tune...

 

theres been rumors of gm releasing a stage 2 for the solstice/sky cars(this would include a reflash, and retain your warranty) .... i would look into their forums for the latest news. other options include buying a 2nd ecu, having it HPtuned and keeping the unmolested stock ecu "JUST INCASE"

^ because gm can tell if they decide to look through the lines of code.

if thats true, its far from normal.

 

I will be tuning the first 2009 this weekend. I will let you know when I am done. Plus if you live far away I can mail you a device that allows me to tune your car.

 

where there is a will there is a way all u gotta do is send me a cable from laptop-car and use a remote desktop program

 

I will give you moneys!!!!


Promise !!

 

Hey steve,does this mean you have access to all the same parameters as the 08 tc now or you're about to find out?

 

i dono about the new balt ecu's, but with most if you unplug your battery, records will be cleared.... is there a flash device available for you guys? if so, you could just unplug the battery before you go back to the dealership for anything, then reload the tune after. If they say, "why was your battery unplugged?" say i thought that might be the problem or, mine died so i replaced it. they can't void warranties for that lol

 

I can now tune 2009s FYI.

 

hey how did it go?
Hahn is doing a read on my car on Tuesday, and tuning if possible.
anything we should know?
thanks steve
