    '09 Silverado Traction control like problem

    Just tuned one today and it got some good numbers, intake and tune yielded 260whp and 288tq...

    From a roll it keeps pulling and has no problems, but from a standstill, its as if Traction Control is stuck on, even with Stabilitrak on!?

    I removed ALLLL TM to try it out with the same problem?

    It happened as soon as I tuned the truck with the beta? Any ideas what about this?

    thanks for the input... I've maxxed all the appropriate tabs to give it 0 TM... I've done this on several cars with no problems... I have a feeling it might be to do with the beta software I'm using.. when I downloaded the '09 file, I didn't do anything to the PCM coz I couldn't license it.. he told me the same day it was happening..

    The truck has a Vararam Tri-power installed which has the MAF right in front of the MAP sensor.. When I checked the truck today there were a few errors from the MAF and MAF/MAP sensor.. I think it's to do with this, will tell the guy to install a stock or normal CAI with the maf sensor in its location and see how that goes...

    Check the timing values at high load, low rpm............many times these are negative values and thats where the PCM goes from a "dig" when you nail it. Of course negative timing will drop the ass out of the hole shot!
