Back home decided to load the 91 tune, updated the intune on the pc and tried to loaded it to the car with speed limiter changed. Write failed. have to revert to original factory tune.
After reading a little bit on the Diablo forum of people having similar problem on their Charger, I retried the 91 tune without any modiication and it loaded without issues, and modified the speed limiter afterward with sucess.
So far the Durango run find and feel more peppy.
Ohh geez lots of bugs... they should be discounting you guys heavily for beta testing this stuff!

Mine is sitting right in front of me but I am reluctant to install. I was on the Diablo forum reading about this application and there are a couple of D owners having issues -- one said his ABS light came on after the tune and will not go off, even after retuning to factory settings...

Somebody else can do the beta testing for Diablo - not me..


BTW I AM interested in the tune eventually.

I can deal with the ABS light if thats the only issue. I read about the guy who had to send his ECU and tuner back to diablo to get it fixed! Talk about a butt hole pucker moment!

I'm still stuck not being able to update mine for my cal id. I got the most recent updates, but there is a problem with the DRG file (whatever that is). Hopefully when I do get the thing updated, everything works out well.

Default Success 1st Time

I installed mine first time this afternoon and all ok.
I am using the 1r01m version that the inTune automatically updated when I plugged it into my PC and registered it.

I have not played with any of the settings other then uploading the 91 Tune. It is not hard off the line as I thought it would be but certainly alot snappier from 1,000 to 4,000 RPM where it was very sluggish before. You do notice that it is much more responsive. I never had an issue 4,000+ as the Mopar CAI and Magnaflow takes care of that.

Wildspeed had it right when he said use the key and not the button. There are a few reboots and be sure to go to the RUN position and not the ACCY position.

I purchased from hemifever on Friday and got it Monday. I also paid a small extra amount for him to create a custom tune from the logs. Invaluable in my opinion as I don't know what the hell I am doing and don't want to know. I just know I want to go fast.. real fast!

01/29/13 Evening Update - I decided to make some minor changes including ECO off, change tire size to 245/40R22, Up top speed to 145. Now the ABS light is constantly illuminated. I have written to Diablo and will update you with their response.

Today, two different techs at DS contacted me and told me not to install any tunes "for a few days" while they work out some bugs. So I am waiting for an all clear.

Mike just emailed me. They need a test truck in South Florida to replicate the problem. If your in South Florida and have a 2011+ Durango, now may be your opportunity to get involved

Default Success!

Well, the most recent updates from Diablosport allowed me to tune the D without issue! I was able to modify stock and install the 91 octane right after. No ABS light, no codes. Butt dyno says things are good. It scared the crap out of me merging on the highway.

I noticed there wasn't a 93 octane tune listed, I've emailed Diablosport about that, but they're going in the right direction now.
