just snapped the bolt off for the lower ball joint / pinch. never did get the ball joint to separate. had to remove bolts from shock tower to do cv axle. should have just done that to begin with being from ohio and the salty region.

Are the new updated orings still orange? and does anyone have the new part numbers?
Just placed the order but i did not order orings for the throttle body. ill need to get part number for that unless someone has part number for that.

TYPE OF STUTTER/STUMBLE
Steady throttle/Increasing throttle/Both:
MODS
Intake:Cobb SF
Exhaust:Catless DP/ Straight pipe, no mufflers.
Fuel:Stock
Turbo:stock
Engine Management:Cobb Stage II OTS
Tuner and revision of tune(if you don't mind):
MAINTENANCE
Sensors changed:
Plugs changed:
Coil Packs changed:Plugs just changed 15NOV2015 / 71k. Front AF / 02 sensor ordered ( rolling dice ).
OTHER SYMPTOMS
Check Engine Light:
Etc: No check engine light non what so ever. Misfire early in morning. Ordered o rings for upper intake manifold. only CEL i have gotten ever was a P0244. Maybe it might be a tuning issue? I dont know. I know its a touchy car right now. But she climbs hard 3-4 now that updated the cobb AP with the up to date firmware. have not checked boost levels now.
When engine has reached operating temperature, sporadic engine stall when coming to a stop sign or light. If you blip the throttle as per video, it wants to stall but rebounds. Other than cleaning the OCV, TPS, ordering new front 02, then replacing on a hunch a #4 coil, then #4 injector, im at a loss.
RESULTS
What has and hasn't worked for you:
If something worked, how long has it been working for: Ive only had the car for a week and a half / 2 weeks. Inherited someone elses troubles i guess you could say. It is what it is. it is my car now though. But Seems to be a very common problem though. I just wish it would spit out a CEL for me, then i would know what to do. Here are two videos for reference. First video is of the morning start up. It is misfiring. Orings for upper intake manifold????Maybe. Ill let you all know.
2nd video was just a little bit ago. Blipping throttle. You can hear and see it wanting to fall on its face but then quickly rebounding.

Sold the duramax this morning. The search starts. The 5th gen looks like a talented group of people...maybe I will start looking there lol.

lol. I went up to get some stuff out of the spare room and seen the LGT calendar hanging on the wall with my old LGT on the front cover ( I won from the soap in the intercooler contest ) thought I would drop by since I have all this spare time now......

Glad she is back up and operational, and happy I was able to be just a small part of this. I wish I was able to assist more. I hope she stays true.

yes they have to re-aimed. i had to aim mine i will put it that way.

Dont know if this has been mentioned or not but my switch is also going. As soon as i get the extra money i will pick one up. the KOP ( thekingofparts ) sells them. Just thought i would mention that. I tried to pick one up off someone on here but they wanted 60 bucks for for it. New they cost 70 something. Figured i would just wait and get the new one. I am pretty sure this was brought up but considering i just woke up i am not fully functioning yet, but the 06 didnt have this prob nearly as bad as the 05's.

One thing to check....
I just went out and found the throttle body hose is wrapped up and around. I found this by blowing on the bpv hose ( small hose ) and nothing but air was heard.
I still have to peel the upper intake manifold off and install new gaskets to totally seal it but you might want to run your fingers along here and see if it flipped, or take that small hose off of your blow off valve and blow in it and if you are able to fully blow in it with no resistance, then you need to trace it down.
car has 71K on it too btw.
