I'm having an issue with my idle, when coming to a complete stop and down shifting the RPMS drops below 500 and truck begins to shudder. Almost like its missing but there are no codes and of course when I bring it to the dealer it never does it. I check fuel, added octane booster, change plugs (verified gap .030), the plugs we removed had a decent amount of carbon on tips but nothing crazy.

Its diving me nuts I can figure this out!

Anyone else with a similar issue?

No weird man. What have you installed on it for performance thus far?

Also, where did you get that gauge from, I love it. How does it interface with your truck?

Have you installed your PedalMax just to be sure?

Previous vehicles I've had problems with that seemed to have been intake/throttle body related

New problem? Recent fill up with bad gas? Try disconnecting your battery and connect it back after 10-15mins.

Could try cleaning the MAF sensor. Especially if traveling in dusty conditions. I have a Gen 1 and it's a common issue but not sure about your set up. Just an idea.

Famous last words, "if you hit it faster it will smooth out some!"

Its been doing it since it was stock. Removed pedal commander and boost max still does it.

Going to clean TB and MAF sensor.
