ENGINE
Description:AFTER RECEIVING V08/V11 AEM UPDATE NOVEMBER 18TH, 2020 I AM EXPERIENCING AN AVERAGE OF 5-6 MPG LOSS IN FUEL ECONOMY (16.4 MPG MIXED - DOWN FROM 21.5-22 MIXED) AS WELL AS EXPERIENCE SEVERE ACCELERATION LAG. IN TERMS OF HIGHWAY MILEAGE I AM STRUGGLING TO GET 20 MPG. CURRENT ECM: 68306456AI CURRENT TCM: 68234053AH FOLLOWING THE V08 EMISSIONS RECALL, DRIVABILITY HAS BEEN SERIOUSLY REDUCED AND HAS CREATED DANGEROUS THROTTLE LAG AND IMPROPER AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION GEAR SELECTION. I WOULD SUMMARIZE THESE ISSUES AS TURBO LAG AND IMPROPER SHIFT MAPPING. WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP THERE IS A 2-3 SECOND LAG BEFORE THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO MOVE EVEN IF THE THROTTLE IS FULLY DEPRESSED. IF YOU ARE EXECUTING A RIGHT OR LEFT TURN INTO TRAFFIC OR CROSSING AN INTERSECTION THIS WILL LEAVE YOU EXPOSED TO A \"T-BONE\" COLLISION. THIS BEHAVIOR IS EVEN MORE PRONOUNCED WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN RUN (COLD ENGINE). CLIMBING A MODERATE HILL SHORTLY AFTER PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY FORCE
