Does he want heaps more money or something? Cold start stuff; did that not become apparent within the first few days of getting your car back? Or did it take until winter months to start causing you problems?What is the cruise control thing you are wanting to fix?.....just so I know if it happens to me when mine gets tuned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing wrong with the cruise control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure someone there will point you to what needs to be adjusted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you return the tune back to stock via the SCT box so that it is unmarried. Then you upload the stock tune and make sure you don't loose the stock tune otherwise if you need a stock tune got to go back to Ford.Then you download the modified tune with HP tuners.Get a wideband from innovate, something like a LC1. Don't worry about narrowband simulation. I've done it and unless you know what you are doing its a bit of a head phuck.You are better off getting another bung welded onto your exhaust.When you get your Hp Tuner hardware you will be able to log onto the Hp Tuner forum and there is alot of good info there, alot of good info about widebands.The fact you have a modified tune will make the learning process a bit easier. You can do a compare of the stock and modified tune and see what tables have been changed and work from there.

Skids4kids in the mid....not the bum like some Member 609 Member For: 11y 4m 27d Gender: Male Posted 08/08/15 12:27 AM Share Posted 08/08/15 12:27 AM Bit of a sh*tty move if you ask me.Start from scratch with your own file not a tweaked one of another tuners. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 21y 5m 20d Gender: Male Posted 08/08/15 03:21 AM Share Posted 08/08/15 03:21 AM No, it is not a sh*tty move.Mate, don't worry about using a modified Ford Tune file. The reality is that Ford spent millions creating a tune, a tuner uses this Ford tune with a few changes and then claims he owns it. Ridiculous.Just use whatever tune file is there and it makes it alot easier. Then when you get more experience then its easy to start from scratch but there is already enough to learn as it is, no point reinventing the wheel.And don't listen to the guys who try to shame you using a tune that you have already paid for. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
