  3. [Resolved] Transmission downshift at highway speeds and then it wigged out.

    For that (Battery Light) to display (ON) it has to see a failure for 30-Seconds, then it will generate the (Check Charging System) Message on the IPC, if I recall the timeline correctly. Anyway - I would do a full diagnostic on the charging system, more importantly the BMS sensor. To ensure its...

    He meant to (TYPE) Ridge Reamer. It's used to shave the top of the cylinder wall down (Ridge) removes the carbon buildup at the top of the wall to get the old piston out and also allow easy install of the piston so (Piston Rings) do not catch on it and break. For any old school engine (it was a...
  5. Hot smell in cab when remote start is used

    If the Temp is cold enough - Remote Start will set (Max Defrost) and Blower High Max Defrost = (Temp Selected) HI, so if there are any dust bunnies (etc) on the heater core or in the ducting you will smell it over standard use.

  8. Front USB ports intermittent not working

    I am sort of in the same boat: I can pay my (Media) via an OLD Iphone vs 3G (No Service) just used as a Ipod. Works great, if using manual selection to (open) it.

  12. [Resolved] Transmission downshift at highway speeds and then it wigged out.

    I think before the Transmission is condemned bad. I would do a drive monitor for all - Transmission Related PIDs and also possibly revert back to stock tune. Has any testing been done other than reading codes? My thought is - (If a Low Voltage - Bad Battery) generated the issue, the PCM is stuck...
  13. “Overheating”

    Yes, if the temp gauge pegged out (full hot) the PCM entered - Fail Safe Cooling This is a programed feature. You need to hook up a scan tool and will most likely find code You are going to possibly find: P1285 or P1299 as these codes will generate the (Pegged-Temp Gauge) Either CHT or ECT -...

    Code: P2112 refers to an issue with the Throttle Position (Input) You may want to at least look at these PIDs to see if you see any dropouts.

    I have been monitoring my drives this past week, noted: The lowest the SOC has dropped was 89%. and it is slow to - Rise even though the Battey Voltage is 12.6 to 12.7 volts, the current charge shuts off - due to the voltage reading.
