Brother if your DSP is supporting the vehicle you want to use it on, I would not attempt installing an update. It won't do anything for you and could change the supported vehicles it now supports... ggod luck..

 

Damn. Good info and good to know, thanks!

 

:iagree:

 

What version is on it currently

 

9r09

 

Give me an email address and I will send you the latest 9r14 crom file.


Thanks

 

Big thanks to you, Mike!

 

And what changes are there between ver 9 and 14? And how will they benefit a 04?

 

Just remember once you update, you can't go back. ( so if something's working and after the update it's not your stuck with it.) I stayed with crom 12. There was nothing for the 3rd gen in the later 2 croms.

 

You can go back, you just can't go back further than what the device was born with

Pretty sure 9r13 and 9r14 were just additions of new cals for 09-10 model year trucks.


Thanks

 

Mike, this is were I keep having issues you/diablo. From my own personal experience I know you can"t go back from an update period. Which is beside the point as the updates don't include gen lll anyway.

 

Sorry you are still having issues with me. I am here to assist those who ask, not to create issues with you.

I can backdate Predators with DSDL. Anyone can.

There are some specific croms that can't go back, and some tools that have weird orders of operation, but a U7137 born with say 9r05 then updated to 9r14 can go back to say 9r09 if desired. Really not sure how or why this matters as we haven't sold one in over 5 years now...

 

Really not sure how or why this matters as we haven't sold one in over 5 years now...

And because of that, I really appreciate the fact that you responded to my post and sent me the crom file. Sorry it caused you to take a bunch of abuse.

 

My issue is with the mis information you put out. But you are right you haven't sold one for 5 years so who gives a *** except those still using them....

 

So...Harleyc04 asks a question.
You chime in with your negative 2 cents, and I respond with actual assistance.
If I thought there was no need for him to update or it might not be a good idea, I would have plainly told him that. Wouldn't be the first time.

Also note that I didn't just tell him the device is old and advise him to upgrade to newer device. I offered assistance to get his old device up to the latest specs, which is what the customer was after initially. Thats why I am here. Solely to assist/support our customers. Not to engage in back and forth with someone who just doesn't like me or the company I work for

On that note, I'm done responding to you

 

Harley I'll leave it with this. Before deciding whether or not to update, go to diablo's forum and read some of it. Then you will know whether to chance it or not.
I'm biased because of the treatment I recieved from diablo. Mike is biased being a Diablo salesman and his membership to the forum is based only on that aspect.

 

Uggh, ok, one note here....a salesperson would have told him the tool was old and advised an upgrade before offering to assist with the current product

I am not a sales person. I get no commission...

BTW, I do at least drive a HEMI, its just not a Ram.

The old predators have there quirks. IMO of it works leave it be to avoid any possible issue. I upgraded mine one time and lost the trans tuning and get a -154 code that still has yet to be solved by diablo. Again of tuner works use it won’t gain anything from update!

 

Didn't know you could go back in crom's. Sound's like a crap shoot from what you posted though. Mike could you post a link to the crom's for the u7137 and the update's in each crom for Harley? This way he could make up his mind wheather an update is worth the try or not.

 

they are no longer publicly hosted anywhere, thus I can't provide that unfortunately.


Thanks

 

Harley,
If you’re able to tune the truck now, there’s no advantage to installing an updated CROM. It’s not like your going to gain additional horsepower from a new CROM. If you want a new tune other then what comes preloaded, talk to a CMR Tuner like Keith, and he’ll get you set up.

Diablosport is a great product as long it’s working, and you’re not considered a one-off. If others are experiencing similar issues, or there’s past knowledge of this problem on others vehicles, they’ll work with you to resolve the problem. But, that’s where it stops.

I get it... it doesn’t make since for Diablo to pull the programming/software engineer off cracking the latest Dodge PCM and or correcting the 2017 and 2018 issues, just to work on your 3rd gen. They’re in the business of selling products, and helping the masses.

I’m not going to rehash my grievance with Diablo, but at least Mike@Diablosport is offering to help. I wish Mike hadn’t gave up on me. Nonetheless as stated before, if everything is working now, leave it alone. There’s huge risk, and no reward.

 

I should clarify some things.

I just picked up the tuner from eBay a few weeks ago.

I needed a tuner to load custom tunes and I don't need the extras that come with the trinity, etc. I have almost every gauge that you can think of already. It feels like you're sitting in an airplane cockpit.

I haven't tuned anything with it yet. My 392 should be here by the end of the month and I am using an 05 PCM so the CMR tuner can mess with the trans.

As far as updating the firmware, I just wanted to make sure I have the most up to date version/features in what I know is an old product, which probably doesn't matter anyways because I am not doing any tuning with the handheld. As I said, I just need to be able to transfer custom tunes to the PCM.

I haven't loaded the new firmware yet.

 

Nope it’s done you asked your ? Got your answer. The tuner will need to be married to the truck after that it should load tunes fine benit custom or canned. There are a bunch of us that have had issues with diablo and some tech support but that’s the past we still use the damn tools anyway because there really is no other options like diablo for the most part. any bashing from here out will be removed if you have an issue with someone send them a pm and hash it out elsewhere family oriented site here were not going to nadodge (no longer existent website) levels

 

Thanks for looking into it Mike. :thumb::thumb:

 

Didn't mean to put you on the spot Mike. Would be nice to have that info. for those who still use the tool. If you have any luck finding it, please post it up. Thank's for helping.

 

Hey Mike anyway I could get crom file for u7137 mine is v.9r06 and says my cal id needs updated if you could I would greatly appreciate it email is ecbjrcm2016@gmail.com thanks alot

there is no getting around the 'calid needs update' situation unfortunately. I'd advise a newer device, we'll give you 25% off of a new one if you trade in that older Predator.

 

I would love to do that if I had the money for new one but I guess maybe if I can sell this bullydog GT I have I take you up on that but do ya know what the cal id is I would need I'm presure I can get it off the tech stream or witech just pay for prescription for 3 days like 30-50 bucks but I don't want to over update it
