    What code was it throwing? This will tell all why the car is remaining in Limp Mode.

    The car never went into limp mode and did not throw any codes. ( other then the rich bank #2 and associated codes for the rear o2 sensor).

    Checked both with Predator and the key dance for other codes and there were none. Only time I would like to drive around with the NO ESP\ABS\Squiggly is at the track.
    I wanted to make sure I did not have a bad speed sensor or toner ring which are associated with those lights being on.

    Gotcha. So the tune itself isn't bad, just have some glitches that are unanswered?

    Again I say call Josh at HHP he will make sure the HHP/BES 426 has the right tune, I know where you went and I heard what happened, Imo they should have never been involved, Us HHP motor guys take care of each other :hug:
    ,


    The last thing I want to hear is a unhappy HHP customer, So do yourself a favor call Josh, He knows whats going on, He has a tune that is right for your build, And once you get straightened out, Dont go astray and seek "another" tune or tuner, Stick with someone who's got your back. Once you have a great street tune your tuner can easilymake a "FEW" tweaks and you can then have the race tune your after.
    This should'nt be happening. :bye:

    I had the same issue with the same vendor (i assume), they said the file was corrupted somehow and they would fix it but I installed the most recent Diablo tune that I am happy with so ...

    Now the only thing is that I am out the $275 for a tune that I havent used

    I hope you can work this out .. considering you have a lot more mods then me that require this tune .. please keep us updated.

    Not the same Vendor I do not think. The one in question is not a Supporting Vendor here and they are trying to get into our market.

    UPDATE:

    I tried to be level headed and since I thought there was an agreement between Arrington Engines and myself as I had every hope that it could be worked out.

    Seems I got a SHOCK and a rude awakening to even think there was actually going to be a two way exchange between a vendor and the customer. I just found out what I was CHARGED on MY Credit CARD and it definately NOT what was agreeded and what I HAVE a reciept for. If this is the way a vendor wants to treat and deal with the customers then I say proceed with caution.

    Oh by the way how would you feel to be charged in the ball park of a GRAND. (not saying it is but you get the point)

    If they did not deliver on the product promised, and you have receipt of that, then my suggestion would be to file a discrepency with your C/C company.

    Sorry you had to endure this.
