I have an 02 chevy duramax with a ppe standard set on 4 straight piped exhaust ppe booet increse valve,a modified intake w/kn filter, and a bully dog propane inj system. My problem is the trans will go into limp mode if i either roll into the throttle at higher speeds, or when im in the throttle at around 70-80. It will jump into third and stay there until i shut the truck off. I cant figure out how to read or clear the codes with my ppe. Any ideas on what i should do to keep my from goin into limp mode

well first off fill out ur signiture:) then take away some of the power ur adding and figure out how to reset codes with ur ppe cause one it slips once its gunna do it more and more frequantly till a new tranny is installed i am not the one to say if a shift kit would as i dont know

what year truck do you have? You could have gotten by with some easy upgrades but now that you've limped it so many times you'll need a full rebuild. I'd say to back the power way down and start saving money for some trans parts.
