Thinking of getting tune but scared
 
I want to get a tune done to my 2.4 but im afraid of what could go wrong and the warranty. I was wondering if someone has had anything go wrong with their tune? I only have 6k miles on the car. Im hoping the tune will take out the delay when I push the gas.

the tune would take out the delay and you would have instant throttle response.

I wouldn't really worry about warranty issues. Just don't mention its tuned or anything if you end up having to take it in. The tune is also easily reversible incase you're really worried.

I have been Trifecta Tuned for over a year and not a single issue with my 2.4.

Correct time to be 2 years in Nov.

Had my (Trifecta) tune for the better part of a year, and the car responds so much better, I would never go back.

As far as the warranty, I'm sure it varies from dealer to dealer, but recently, I had to have the entire engine replaced on my 08, and they never mentioned anything about it to me (and I never mentioned it to them :smile:)

I always thought it would be nice to get the mpg tune...

I average 2 MPG better in the long overall look with my 2.4 Auto.

If the car has to go to GM for engine related warranty repair, what do you charge to revert back to factory tune?

I can send out my loaner cable or you can purchase one to switch as you need. Cost you ask for a cable $200.00 per some new pricing.
