Okay so bear with me as I'm clearly a newbie. I'm very interested in this tune. Sometimes I feel like my truck is lagging when switching gears and as I read above, this tune should fix that. Would this also stop the tremors when I'm in park and in drive when I'm at a complete stop at an intersection?

Damn sounds like you got gremlins in there.

What gas are you running? Have you brought your vehicle in for a warranty check? Perhaps your motor mounts are bad.

I run 85. And I haven't taken it to a dealer but I've went through the myChevrolet app under warranty and it's still under powertrain and corrosion limited 100k I'm at 53,***. I'll look into the motor mounts this weekend. Thanks.

I run 89* at the least. I'm gonna start pumping 93 and see if I notice anything

Stanky,

You are not alone dealing with the tremor at idle. A family member has a 16 escalade, that takes only 91, and it does shake at idle.
Ours does as well, but we don't do much idling and when we do I have notinced its not as pronounced as the escalade.
I think there is lots of info on this topis.

As far as gas, I have switched from top tier 87 to top tier 89 and the difference is really noticable to me, not to my wife:
when accelerating, much smoother and no harshness on the top end like i use to have.

I will get a BB tune as well shortly.
