: Got the Reflash......No smoke with the edge!!!
NorCal 2500HD 04-03-2005, 03:25 AM Took the truck in on monday and they did the reflash with the most current one to date ( from what the service writer told me). B4 the reflash the Edge on level 3 used to make the truck smoke pretty good when I would stomp on it from a stand still........Now it barely smokes at all....any ideas????
redneck45 04-04-2005, 12:07 PM I think I posted about the same thing earlier. I too noticed more smoke on level 3 before the reflash, after the flash she burns alot cleaner! Don't know why, but def. runs better--no more juice knock!
NorCal 2500HD 04-04-2005, 02:50 PM Now that you mention it, you're right...no more knocking.....
Liftedhdrado 04-04-2005, 02:57 PM when u guys went in for the re-flash did u guys take off ur edge?
redneck45 04-05-2005, 10:05 AM Yes, take off the edge.
Liftedhdrado 04-05-2005, 10:06 AM Thanks
AbsoluteGMC 04-05-2005, 12:39 PM I beleive that the reflash raises the common fuel rail pressure from 80 to 140 mpa (11000 psi to 21000) during medium and heavy throttle. This would help in atomizing the fuel and aid in a better burn which is why less unburnt fuel is coming out of the tail pipe.
Liftedhdrado 04-05-2005, 12:52 PM I guess I'll be making a trip to the dealer soon...
9W3-HD 04-05-2005, 01:59 PM I just got mine flashed because of the smoke at idle, I told the tech before hand, no cat, no egr, juice was still in, just so he would know why all the codes, it definity improved the smoke issue, Im not seeing anything even WOT, but there still is a little sure at slower speeds. Runs fine otherwise.

am I correct in thinking this will improve mileage? anyone seen a difference yet?
9W3-HD 04-05-2005, 02:38 PM umm..negative
lakingslayer 04-05-2005, 03:00 PM Throw a predator 40hp tune in and see if the smoke comes back with the Juice.

Runs fine otherwise.Did the tech say anything on the juice being on the truck? Was he cool about it?
dmaxhd 04-05-2005, 04:45 PM Is this a second flash for the LLY's or is the same flash that came out last winter for Rough idle, smoke and parking lot serge?
9W3-HD 04-06-2005, 04:18 PM Did the tech say anything on the juice being on the truck? Was he cool about it?
No he didnt really care, he just wanted to know why I unplugged the egr? He said by leaving it plugged in it should run leaner and get better fuel milage..I dont know....I said lets just leave it alone..lol, and he did. He also said with that massive exaust and the juice he would reccomend a better flowing air filter.
Liftedhdrado 04-06-2005, 04:20 PM Oh well..thats cool then..right on..I"ll keep you guys posted when I take mine in.
DURAMAX1 04-06-2005, 09:10 PM LiftedHD, If you do not have the re-flash, get it. My truck runs way better.

If u had the juice off, did u recheck your settings after the reinstall?
Make sure the low fuel boost is on 5.
Mine still does the same smoke after the flash as before.
NorCal 2500HD 04-07-2005, 04:38 PM yeah low boost is on level 5..........the last few days it seems to be smoking a little more.....runs alot better though
pgreen 04-07-2005, 09:02 PM Just got the reflash today. Only took about 20 minutes. Tech said there were quite a few updates. Truck was built in mid-December 2004. Edge updated to 1.2 helped quite a bit. Now with the new truck updates, there's almost no smoke, drivability increased significantly. Both updates were well worth it. I did take my juice out though, just to save the questions...

Liftedhdrado 04-08-2005, 10:08 AM How much does the Edge update to 1.2 cost?
