    I would try this file. Then you can use COS 051200xx. Edit- I had '051300xx' here but I meant '051200xx' as what is in the tutorial.

    This is from an 06 LQ9 truck. Compare it manually to your file.

    Okay Thank You for that, but can you please tell me how you found that file? I am interested in the know hows so I am not asking the same question and learn a little more. Again Thank You.

    yeah I just looked at the one you posted and it doesn't have an upgrade listed under that tab. I think I'm lost and this is going to take a bit to get used to.

    have you read that?

    Get your current tune swapped into that new tune( update any tables that are different). Then tune your ecu with that new tune. Then flash in the COS from the folder in my documents, read it off, fix it up, flash it back in, make sure it still runs, then get to tuning.

    Its so idiot proof it seems complicated at first.

    Yeah I read that and I swear I read that you go under the upgrade tab and select the OS. They must have changed it since last night! Okay going to try this and hope for the best. Again Thank You.

    the 'xx' is replaced by what COS number you want to run. If you want COS5 then you want 05120005. If you don't see it then make sure you are on the latest software.

    I admit HPtuner is more noob friendly, but efilive has CAX capability which is epic.

    I am on the latest update but do not have 051300XX, I have 05120001-0003. CAX capability, so I may cry myself to sleep tonight.
