Yes tuning can help as long as its not a mechanical issue. I use pcmflash to read and write ecu

 

Sounds like a sales pitch. 🤔

 

Last I checked the uprev tune cannot adjust or modify the programming on the TCM.

 

If it could I would pay thousands!!! Lol…

 

Ha ha ha. If you check all three posts, they basically say the same thing

 

And say absolutely nothing.

 

That pcmflash stuff is from Russia who supposedly are the hack kings so their stuff might just be what we need….

If they can get into pipelines, banks, pentagon…etc. our Titans should be a piece of cake…

 

Lol. That’s very true! I’ll have to check it out. Doesn’t seem like Nissan/dealer will have a fix anytime soon.

 

Using crap like that usually messes up the truck, while the vendor tiptoes away. I'd rethink using junk like that. Use UpRev or nothing.

 

Pcmflash works perfect. I have flashed my armada over 20 times same ecu, never had an issue as pcmflash does checksum correction before writing ecu. Pcmflash has both types of ecu reading... CAN and Kline. Two different plugins. Their software works with security dongle. Buy original open port 2.0 and pcmflash and your set for reading and writting ecu thru obd and its one of best software for Asian cars.

 

It works on the 2016+ with VK56VD 2nd Gen Titans?

 

 

Here is a stage 2 tune for comparison. Original and tuned file attached.... DO NOT WRITE THIS FILE TO YOUR ECU. IT CAN BE WRITTEN ONLY IF SW# IS THE SAME. File is good for comparing maps and learning purposes.

That great that you came back to explain more, @Mechanicservice6

 

I wonder how good the tech support is from russia when you turn your ECU into an expensive paperweight doing this?

 

You know what a dongle is? Can you be sure of what parameters you are changing? Do you know if you have CAN or CANT? This is not for the average person. If you buy into it, please be sure to come on the forum and tell us what a piece of junk Nissan is after you royally screw yours up.

 

Just doing identification on pcmflash will show you if its can or kline its simple no need to be a developer to figure it out..... The software its only for reading and writing not to do the tune. You can have any tuner mod your file.... Shitty tuners are the ones the mess up car not the software.

 

I know if I bought it, the truck would never start again..

I have already been through trying to do this on my bmw with megasquirt ms3, when it first came out. Put on a turbo and did all that, built the megasquirt and the simulator where ms3 tested perfectly, and than plugged into the car and nothing. Nothing for two months so I took it all off and put the stock ECU and wiring back in with the stock exhaust and the car started right up.

So, I learned to not ever try that on my own. I didn't grow up with computers and don't know anything about modding ecus, even after months and months of reading and talking to people about megasquirt. Stock is good enough for me

 

May be totally unrelated but recently in my 2017, something happened where I felt I went from driving my V8 to a UHaul truck where the engine mysteriously revved to 2-4k with little response.

Dealer replaced the Fan Coupling Assembly and I have my V8 back. Part 21082-5x23a

On a side note, the Drivers Side AC was blowing mildly cold where passenger was cold. They replaced 27732-EZ03B Actuator Assy-Air Mix

 

I know mine if in park and try to hold steady at 2k rpms it will instantly jump up to 3-35k. Not sure why that is

 

When my Titan had similar issues it was the Crankcase position sensor failing. It would cause all symptoms you mentioned.

 

Record it if possible and show the maintenance manager. Also, if possible test drive another Titan 2017-2019 and see if the issue feels similar. I have a 2020 and captured any issues on video, the dealer had little to rebuttal. Don't feel bad either, my 2020 has a complete new rear end and transfer case due to issues early on.

 

I video also otherwise they can never duplicate issues. The video gets stuff handled right away though

 

What's all this have to do with a cheesy tuner?

 

Oh dang. I thought we were in the knock thread
