Cobb tune and the new phaser software update

[greatone99]

if I get the new phaser update ,can I reinstall my stage 2 Cobb tune after its done ,or will it overwrite the ford software and be back to square 1

The consensus seems to be you can reinstall your tune after it's done without it overwriting the phaser update. It's suggested to update the firmware on your accessport first and may even be required before it will load your tune back on depending on how out of date it is

The tune will overwrite the updated calibration from Ford. You would need to contact Cobb and see if they have updated their tune with the parameters from Ford’s new software. If they have, you’ll need to download the new software to your tuner device before installing it in the truck.

I could be wrong, but my understanding from Cobb was that their tune does not need updated. Essentially it only overwrites the tables it needs to and does not affect the base calibration.

That’s what they said to me as well, in an email today .

Correct. The COBB Accessport/tunes do not effect the cam phaser recall update.

It rides on top of that update

I know most are talking about Cobb, but my guess is it's common with all tuners. I have a stock Bully Dog tuner and have yet to have phaser TSB done. After I have TSB performed, if I reload the stock Bully Dog tune, it should be okay right??? Dont want to see some software crash.....that would be a bad day!

Good to hear from you FordTechOne I got worried I thought you left the forum and went to TRX
