No you're not alone, I switched from tune+ to PD Tuning and I will never go back. I get that Adam knows his stuff and was one of the first to push the platform when he was with MAP perfromance, but god damn it doesnt mean you get to be a A**hole to everyone who asks questions. He was extremely rude to me every time i asked questions about my revisions. The vibe i got from him was "shut up, im right youre wrong".So I'm curious if anyone else has had issues with tune plus? I'm currently going through the tuning process with them and having issues with switching map slots. Also, not sure of anyone else's impression of Adam but he seems a little arrogant. Not sure if this is just with me or all tune+ customers, but I'm trying to get a grasp on how he does things. First off, Adam keeps telling me to hit cruise control cancel then use the + and - buttons to change the slot. However that's not working. When I told him, he keeps telling me to do the same thing and not really addressing the issue. I called Cobb to make sure it wasnt anything on their end and all firmware was up to date, which is was. Still cant figure it out. I have an 18 mustang EcoBoost. Anyone else have a similar experience?
He gained a ton of traction for being one of the first to tune and push the limits of the platform, a reputation is all a newbie needs to hear to go " well everyone else is getting tuned by him i should too". Being one of the first to the party goes miles.Damn, I didn't know he was all that bad. A lot of people said he is good at what he does, just an arrogant asshole. Now you're making me nervous to go through with my tune from him! Is he really that bad? And if so why is he still in business?? Seems like he knows what hes doing. Is it possible that was only because he was just starting out? I'm curious of other people's opinions on him! Does anyone like him, or has anyone had a good experience with this guy??
Is that how you want to feel about someone who has the life of your engine in his hands, or would you rather feel confident in the tuning that your getting and the support that comes with it....?I really dont mind Adam, as long as he can do a good job. The guy seems like he knows what he is doing. It just sucks trying to get feedback from him. It's like pulling teeth. But his responses are always super quick even though they're short..
Its your car and your money so I can't make the decision for you, but my two cents is this- If i had known what i know now about Tune+ and PD Tuning, I would have NEVER gone with Tune+. I'm not saying youre gonna get a bad tune from adam at all, my tune was fine(but PD's is miles better IMO).I understand what you're saying. I honestly dont think Adam is a bad tuner. He's just an asshole. I work around a lot of assholes so I'm use to that kind of personality but to be honest, he seems to have gotten better as the process continues. I dont know if he just takes a while to warm up to people. I feel like at first he though I was half retarded based on my questions but now that he sees I somewhat know what I'm talking about it's not so bad. I'm just curious though. What should I do? Get the tune from Adam then call it a day and either use it or dont, then later on buy one from pd or stratified? Or just say screw it and stop the tune right now and move on to another company? Wasting 200 bucks isnt really something I wanna do. Especially if theres a chance he will actually give me a good tune...
It's not solely about blowing engines. Customer service matters. I have never read one post about good customer service from tune+. So everything else aside I won't go there for that reason alone. Again I know he is a good tuner and I don't fault Adam for the early failures. But if he doesn't want threads like this to pop up then he needs to provide better customer service.I'm curious too......How is the PD tune "miles better"? mpg, et / mph, mpg, shift, idle, what's better ?
*****No other tuner has ever blown a motor// just that tune guy?
Anyone on this post blown up or tuned by the tune plus?
Not one eco car owner is arroganta**hole?
Sounds like a "set up" posting, read it again...... a guy did good work and some don't like his mannerisms....... and here comes the bandwagon.
And they ask why is the eco forum declining...............
Pulls better to redline than my tune+ tune did, overall drive ability under normal driving conditions is better, throttle response is smoother and not as edgy as the tune from Tune+.I'm curious too......How is the PD tune "miles better"? mpg, et / mph, mpg, shift, idle, what's better ?
