2016 3500 Aisin poor throttle response

1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississippi, 4 Mississippi, 5 Mississippi, 6 Mississippi, 7 Mississippi, 8 Mississippi GO! My truck would surely be in the bone yard by now. SNOKING

I just had the BD Throttle Sensitivity Booster installed on my new truck (~2,600 miles) with boost set at 50% and I like it. I will next test it set to 100%. I'm told however that wheel spin can be a problem. I noticed the lag on a test drive of a different truck that had the Aisin as I recall. It's not fun spending money on a stock truck to improve it yet all gear heads do that to suit their personal taste so I don't mind.

I have a 2016 Ram 3500 with the 900# and Aisin. Yes there is a tiny bit of leg if I try to do a California style ''stop'' and pull out quickly in front of someone....

My solution has been simple:
Stop completely and don't pull out in front of someone expecting a rocket ship launch.

I'm over 25,000 now on my 2016 and love the truck.

The worst delay is trying to roll slowly to a stop sign and then floor it without stopping completely. Like the computer is not in the right gear or mode yet.

This is what I noticed. I'm used to it by now, but I had to almost re-learn to drive again; first auto transmission since 94

Having owned a vehicle(not a Ram)that had a serious case of dead-pedal, I really feel for the owners having to deal with it. You have not lived until you run out an on-ramp trying to merge with freeway traffic, or go to make a pass, and there is NO, AS IN ZERO response from the engine room. It's not laggy. It's not turbos slow to spool. It is no response whatsoever.

I can't comment on the Aisin, but the 2104 68rfe truck I drove had the lag, just as owners have described here. It leads me to believe the Ram program is the culprit. I no longer drive the truck, as I quit the company that owns it. I was looking at installing the BD devise, if the company agreed to it.

Again...the rude comments that no way can it have an eight second lag. As I mentioned before, the factory rep (sitting beside me in my truck with their computer hooked up recording the events) said there were trucks with worse lag than mine (3-5 seconds depending on the gear I am in and speed I am traveling). He said some were up to ten seconds. Made me feel a little better that mine was half that but doesn't resolve the problem. So if don't have the problem, or a solution, stay off the forum with negative input for those of us suffering with the issue. I certainly don't need to submit anything to you to prove our point since you cannot do anything about it.

I find it very hard to believe a 10 second delay of throttle response isn't considered a safety issue. It certainly is cause for invoking lemon law status. If enough people go through with a return of a vehicle you would think the problem would get corrected before it puts the MFG in bankruptcy.

But you can't take 18 seconds to record it and post it on the internet? Not sure how my comments are RUDE... they are certainly incredulous, but that doesn't mean that they are rude. If I offended you, surely I apologize.

You are 100% right, I can't help you with it. Nobody else here can either. That's what MECHANICS are for. A video posted to a public Cummins forum showing this 8 second delay between pushing the accelerator and the vehicle responding could potentially help your cause. I can't fathom why you wouldn't want to do something that could help you.

Yes record it for posting!

I just talked to the dealer I bought the truck at and he told me the trucks all come with a 3-8 second delay to save the trans he even said some guys are refusing delivery also

Now.....I'm more properly equipped to read additional posts from this bozo

So I asked him what was the point of paying $2,595 extra for the trans if it wont hold up?

Reallllllly ?????????????

 

[SnoKing]

I would really like to drive bozo's truck and let him drive mine (mapbe?)!

Okay... that leads to part 2... Why in the name of God...?=)

So, you used to work with the Jolly Green Giant, Little Green Sprout?

Cummins can turn the new 2017 B6.7 to 425/925, but if it constantly has to de-fuel or delay under full throttle to keep the trans intact, what's the point?

I couldn't agree more, maybe at that one magical computer controlled moment it will actually produce that power? Unleash it. If the trans can't handle it build one that can. Increasing the power numbers only to have it neutered by torque management isn't an honest approach.
