Dan I have a PPE on my 2007.5 LMM diesel. I have the GM update installed and now the engine rattles after I installed my 90 hp PPE. It only does it when I start the truck when it is cold. I do live in Canada and it is getting colder here. The next thing I have as a question is after getting the GM update my fuel mileage has gone down as I would get 20-21 mpg before the update, do you know what has change for my mile to go down to around 18 mpg?:(

That has been an issue with all programmers. I am sure Dan can say for sure if they have the update for it.

When is the last time you changed your fuel filter?

x2, changed mine, drove like a completely different truck. Only had 8K miles on the filter and DIC read 60% life, yeah right! Made the econ setting feel like the 90hp setting after changing it. Never could have imagined THAT big of a difference! One other thing, have they switched you to winter blend yet, being that it's getting colder up there? That'll make it drop. Chris
