isn't it supposed to do that? That's why you have to do a driving cycle before checking emissions.

Is that not right?

Yep, it shouldn't completely reset every time you cycle the key, or nobody would ever pass. Who did the tuning? Sounds like a PCM issue to me...I wonder if something was left "unchecked" or "checked" when the PCM was tuned?
