Like this one? viewtopic.php?t=7890&p=116969

I just googled 12579405 and it was the first hit.

If you meant another one, and it doesn't exist its because nobody with the skills to make it has had a reason to spend their time on it. In that case, use universal patcher. If that doesn't provide what you need, then you are out of luck.

i believe the XDF marked "12639623 OS 2023-04-06.zip" is actually for 12619623 - phoenix can you confirm?

i was referencing the original thread on gearhead efi, and it looked like the guy you were going back and forth with was using 12619623

thanks

I think the Trans section of the 12639623 XDF still needs looked at. I compared a few and the trans type is incorrect and I also think the OSID under calibration info is wrong as well. Thank you Phoenix for the continued support of these!

I have os - 12587811 in a 2006 2500hd with the lq4. Im looking to get my truck tuned for removal of torque management, break torque management, abuse mode and maybe a few other things. Trucks stock just feels sluggish looking to get a little more pep out of it. I have the bin I just need some knowledge of what to do.

If you don't have the matching XDF, take a look at universal patcher. Instead of needing to know everything about every OS, for most PCM types it has a way of searching for tables so it is more generic.

I've played around with universal patcher, would anyone be willing to look over my bin and Compare it to my stock to make sure I made the correct changes to wake this truck up?

All you can really do without a dyno or good data logging, is disabling traction control and "abuse" limits. Or things like switching between electric or cable throttle, 4L80 swap. You're not going to do much else.
If you want good support, go 12587603 and sort out the details as you go. Whatever it is, you'll be able to make it work right again. Discrete gauges vs serial data gauges, different fuel sender voltage vs level, security settings, VIN change, whatever.
I've spent many hours looking at the P59 in UniversalPatcher (P59 + CB450). There's a lot.

That's a 2004 Chevy Aveo tachometer by the way.
Don't stress specific units.
