Truck is an 03. Twin 62mm, 5.3, 4l60 trans. OS 12593058. By the Tutorial list, I should be Full Flashing COS 03190003.

My problem, is I cannot find the .tun COS 03190003 to open and flash into the PCM. I have to be missing something so obvious. I have found the .calz 03190003 in the "Custom" folder of LS1B, but I cannot open it, or find anywhere to "select" it to full flash into the PCM to complete the tutorial.

I have successfully tuned a TT G8 GXP so my EFI Live cherry was painfully popped with that car. Suggestions?

Yep, Painfully obvious. I kept looking into C: drive, program files, EFILive. I'll update with results, thanks for the prompt response!!!!!!!!

Couple that with the umpteen other systems I tune and have to keep track of, this becomes very difficult to navigate! :-)

Be sure to get rid of all the out range or limits that pop up when you open the tune, that will save a lot of headaches. If you run into anymore problems feel free to give me a call, I run custom OS all the time and can most likely help you over the phone.

Good point, make sure you fix all the OOR cells before you flash it.

Doesn't Custom OS folder show up in the TT list ?
If not you can add it so you don't have to search for it every time .

Im assuming TT means "Tutorial".

The folder with the files themselves, no. But this is a great idea!!!

I am hoping this thread saves people time later on, as I know I can't be the only one. Especially as more V8s are being tuned by "import" tuners now-a-days.

Tuning is going well!!! 7psi and the truck is spinning 35's. Poor 4L60...LOL.

No "Tune Tool" program for tuning , yeah I created a folder and placed the files in it so when I open TT it appears in the .tun section , I have folders for different years , truck , cars etc.... , cuts down on searching and categorizes things .
