Ok so swapped the 6.0 in place of the 5.3. Bought a brand new Xlink and used TB and from the get go had REP mode with the used TB.
So I bought another TB and hooked it up and everything was great! Fast forward a month and I change gears in the rear and go do some logging and truck starts going into REP at the top of 2nd or Middle of 3rd but it was never a cosistent rpm/mph etc.
Well I've just been babying it but have done a few hwy pulls and now it seems to be doing it more and more. I've read through a couple of threads but nothing that compares to mine. With the first throttle body it would throw 2 codes (can't remember right now) but since it's starting to do it again I don't get any codes except some EBCM performance BS that's always there
Here are some screenshots. My throttle never goes past 98.8% and then it starts fluctuating from 98.8% to 97%.. It will dip down to 96% sometimes and that's when it seems to set the rep but no CEL
EDIT: 87mm truck TB


^^ This log here it actually hit rep in 3rd gear but throttle was 97%??.....

Like said before, post up your tune. What are all the mods to the truck? I ran into this, and from everything I have gathered my problem was due to pulling too much air though the throttle body. I dont think that is your issue here though.
First with key on, engine off place the pedal WOT and see if it triggers REP.

Who did the tune? I am betting your hitting the threshold on one for the tests. But then again i could be wrong.
Also what code did i throw when it goes into REP?
