Why is the throttle lag that we all seem to have not being fixed by Dodge on the eco diesel?

DSL's inherit lag, couple with TQ management to stop owners form smashing up things like Garage Doors etc.

If you want dart driving Buy gas.

Its in most DSL's today.

Buy aftermarket Transmission 3-D with lower stall and increase line pressure and tune, you will know why OEM's use TQMGT.

The "Dead Pedal" after the software fix is really bad. I wouldn't say all diesels are like that, it just isn't true. I would recommend selling the truck or tuning it if you want the throttle fixed.

Boostn, Their has Not been a DSL ( On-Road) in the last 15 that does not have Lag due to TQMGT. Commercial DSL's are even worst, Because the Power those behemoth 13L+ can twist up even the most Robust DL you can turn. The 3.0 is not capable of destroying the DL behind it, That being said if you were to drop it in gear without depressing hard on the service brake , the truck could surge forward causing injury or damage W/O TQMGT.
