You should have turned your computer to stock before switching from one platform to another.

No Josh, you are currently tuned by bm3 and not us. If our tool doesn't detect your car correctly now, then your computer is running incorrect firmware for your car thanks to OTC mapping and you need to contact your other tuner to get you restored to factory original flash before going back to us.

You switched platforms, flashed otc map that changed your vehicle data and now you are having issues. I told you that I did over ride on our safety functions and forced a correct flash data for your vin number. So flash the tune using our app or contact bm3 and get your ecu desired correctly. Sorry but this is a weekend, and jumping from one platform to another results in issues like this. So, follow directions provided since I did the over ride for you or stick to your new tuner.

I'm still unclear what you just did? Did you make a way (override) for me to safely flash using the Mflasher? |

Anyone else on the ecu+tcu combo experiencing a significant drop in mpg? I want to say my driving style hasn't really changed (some days I want to go fast all the time, some days I want to go fast a little at a time) but I'm finding myself at the gas station more frequently. Is this the case for you guys as well?
I haven't touched the spark plugs and was considering regapping them but the way this thing is eating gas as my daily, and with gas at an average of $4.50/gal, I'm probably not going to. I will say the smiles per gallon have definitely increased I just want the mpq to even out lol

Thanks but the performance outweighs fuel efficiency by a long shot. I just needed to know if this was normal because I don't remember reading anything about mpg significantly decreasing and this is my first time tuning/flashing a car so that's why I asked

Have you run a tank through the car with it in comfort mode and driven moderately with mixed highway and local use? I'm curious what type of MPG you would see? I keep meaning to do this on mine - but it's so hard for me to give up on my couple gallons of E85 and pounding on the car whenever it is safe to do so (in Mexico of course) |

I'm going to reset the on board computer to see exactly what kind of fuel efficiency I'm getting. My daily driving consists of 50/50 highway and city so it should be an interesting comparison.

I don't track daily gas mileage, but it seems only slightly worse to me, being I fill up roughly every 6 or 7 days versus 7/8.
As for long distance, recently drove from pittsburgh to DC, in comfort/Econ mode (roughly 250miles each way) and got about 35 MPG, which was really surprising. Stayed no more than 8 miles above speed limit, so mostly 78MPH, and only occasionally drove over 100MPH
