Re: [ST] Minor Stumbling Problem



When I had the tune updated there was some minor improvement but the 
condition didn't go away.  I know it originally had a tune that was at least 
4 years old prior to the update so I assume that the improvement was just 
from a better injection map overall.  So I don't think it has anything to do 
with the ECU losing the tune.

Other ideas?
