- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- I recently upgraded to a dual gauge setup with a Banks Dual Stealth Pod and a DataMonster as well as a Super Gauge. Using the link below, you can input your exact vehicle then select the iDash unit that you want and it will ask you the questions necessary to get exactly what you are after. Mine is a Data Monster then I added the PiggyBack SuperGauge. The pod used is the Stealth pod for my Year truck.

Great in-depth review of the iDash DataMonster and iDash Stealth Pods! We're thrilled that you continue to discover new features and data. We believe everyone should have an iDash in their truck or car!
You don't have to use one of your spaces to show if Regen is on or off. You can actually set up an alert that will show up on any screen you're running as an overlay when it goes into Regen. It pops up with a big yellow flashing light and says "REGEN" . It then shows a small yellow box in the upper corner of the screen for the full duration of the Regen until it ends. I found that out from banks and have been using that method ever since. It's nice because now I have an extra field that I can utilize for something else instead of wasting it on the Regen status.
I was toying around with that and it seemed to ask me to set the high to 10 and I was thrown off as it should be on/off. So I did not change anything. That would be much more beneficial, for sure. Thanks for sharing! You are the second to tell me, so i should really set it.
Personally I’d rather see how it’s approaching 100% since I do a alot of short distance driving in between towing cycles. Because if I have the time, I’d continue driving until the regen is off. Giving me a complete uninterrupted cycle. Tks for the video
@@hammer-r I'm not talking about the soot load %. I'm talking about the Regen "off/on" indicator.
@@DemonWorks, if I recall correctly, readings like that are a binary, so 0 for off and 1 for active, not sure why their default would be 10, but maybe give that a try and see if it works?
Better to see when it’s about to pop….then you can plan accordingly.
If you don’t mind, you should see if Banks will throw you a discount code for your viewers to use through your affiliate link. I knew of banks before I found your channel. But me buying the idash gauges wouldn’t have happened had I not found your channel. As always I appreciate your videos
No discount codes directly with my link, however, they do have a spinny wheel thing that pops up that provides a discount code. Maybe in the future we could do a discount code, I appreciate the idea, kind words and support of the channel !
I can't wait till the pods come out for the 21-23 F-150, I like banks products and its definitely necessary on any diesel vehicle.
Same here!
Banks needs to come up with a dual pod for the top bolt so it would lay flat up against the roofline. That’s how I got mine now with the suction cup
That's not a distraction for you? Not sure I would enjoy it that high.
It looked like you had transmission gear in your original layout? Where was that located? I’ve looked all over and can’t find that setting… or even engine oil pressure (I want more resolution than the factory gauge)?! Thanks and keep up the great content!!!
I would love to see oil pressure as well, unsure why it won't show. Sometimes it will show in a datalog though. The transmission gear one is in the transmission area, but I believe it's only available if you select the second LM2 option that I show in there.
Make sure you've selected your engine type. Transmission gear didn't show up for me until I selected the engine in the settings.
It is located at Transmission > GEAR. They still however have not cracked the Oil Pressure.
I need a super gauge companion now.
Is the current transmission gear am option? I really wish GM gave you that option to see your current gear.
Yes, it was one of the default gauges was showing at the beginning of the video (It says P/N since he was in Park). I like knowing the gear as well and I keep one of my gauges on this.
Man I need this for my Tahoe but unfortunately I don’t have the same A pillar setup.
I think you can get a grab handle style pillar cover for the Tahoe
ooh, that would be cool if possible. I haven't looked.
That's a good suggestion, we'll pass it along to our engineering team.
Thanks for the info.
Any time!
Nice video! I have a '23 RST 3.0, and you've posted some useful stuff for us! At this time, I'm running a single SuperGauge with the stealth pod, but now I have a good idea of what to put on it. Couple of quick questions, if you'll indulge me: I take advantage of the start/stop technology when I'm tooling around town (call me crazy--I'm a cheapo). When the truck stops at a light, the gauge goes off, and usually comes back on when I go again. Is there a way to keep the gauge on all the time, even when the motor is temporarily stopped? Is there any reason to also monitor EGT/2, other than watching what it does during a regen cycle?
I have same LZO w idash 1.24.7 firmware. Does your distance between regen go blank a few seconds after startup?
mine does not, but I know a few people that happens to. One is someone is a friend of mine and I need to check his out to see what's going on.
@@DemonWorks This is my problem as well. 22 Yukon LM2 and when set to DMAX LM2 I can get info such as trans gear, etc, however after about a minute the DPF RG and DPF DIS values change to two lines and then never display a value until restarting. If I use the other LM2 profile for 20-21 Trucks those DPF values display the entire drive, however trans gear doesn't work. Really wish Banks would address this. I am using the beta software as well.
This is happening on mine as well. 24’ trail boss
How do you get the beta version? I’d like to have gear and trans temp showing for my LZO but most up to date version doesn’t show that data.

Question for anyone with more information about fault code P049D: EGR “A” Control Position Exceeded Learning Limit.
I have a 2020 Chevy silverado 1500 with the 3.0 Duramax with 81000 miles. I started my truck the other day and received the "service emission system" message along with a check engine light. Scanned the truck and its throwing a P049D code. Looked up the warranty and the egr valve falls under the emissions warranty from what I could find. My emissions warranty just expired, so I was wanting to change the valve myself if it comes to that. I found that the egr valve could be clogged and need cleaning also. The 3.0 has two egr valves, one being the high pressure and the other being the low pressure, and I couldn't find which one is most likely causing the fault. I might remove the low pressure one and clean it out to see if that fixes it first. I am new to diesel vehicles and wondering if anyone has any insight into this issue. I could be wrong with what I'm thinking is the issue, so any knowledge over the issue is appreciated.
Any idea when Banks will release the pedal monster and derringer for the 23 Tahoe Duramax?
I’m going to ask the same question, how did you get the beta version?
Call them and they will tell you. Reminds me I need to update mine since it’s about 8 months since new.
How did you get the beta update, I don’t see it on their website? I’m running 1.24.0
Call Banks. 1.24.7 was made available in May 2023
@@rsblum thanks I will
Hi everyone long time poster here. The creator of this channel loves me to no end, so I feel I need to chime in with some data from my LZO. I just got the dash a few weeks ago. I zero my tripometer straight off a Regen. The banks has the option to show mileage between regen. I compare the bank’s mileage with the tripometer from the truck. It’s average close to 100 miles off each time. The banks says I’ve gone close to 300 miles between and my truck only around 200. Seems the banks fun o meter is way off. Also, I have close to 2k miles on my truck now and have towed a 3000 lb boat in there somewhere. My def fluid has only gone down 2 bars! How far do you people get per def fill?
The idash selection is "average" and to me, that means it takes into account all previous regens. I'm at 500 miles and still haven't had my first. From prior info taken from my trucks, I will average 300-450 miles per regen after it's broken in. Def fluid use will vary with everyone, but I was at 1.25 gallons per 1000 miles.
Perhaps the “mileage between regens” is a PID from the truck and not from Banks software itself? With my OBD Fusion app I can select the PID “average miles between regen”, that’s generated/created by the truck and not via the app I believe. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.
Ok that helps thanks!
I wonder if the more frequent regents has to do with the heavier truck im running? The aev has just over 1000# payload, so I wonder if the extra weight of the skid plates and bumpers and whatever else is working the engine just that much more? What gives one truck long periods between regen and the next truck shorter periods? Hmmmm
I just bought a 24 1500 trail boss with the 3.0 LZ0 but it's got the more Basic instrument panel and doesn't show live MPG, does this unit show active and average mpg?
Off topic but what temperature will you plug in at? Currently running hot shots EDT winter defense fuel treatment as well.
Zero is what the manual says.
My LZ0 begins to start a little rougher at 20 degrees F, so I plug mine in if I anticipate having to start it below freezing.
Will it mess up your warranty when installing the idash
I have the Super Gauge in my truck and its been 1 year since i bought it. how do you update the software to the current version. Can you use any micro sd card and how do you get the files? do you have to call banks or download from their website?
updates are found here : official.bankspower.com/customer-support/product-updates/banks-idash-datamonster-idash-super-gauge-updates-downloads/ Micro sd card needs to be under 16gb
@@DemonWorks Thank you for the link! I've found your channel to be very informative and thoroughly enjoyed watching the videos. i have even done a few things i didn't think were possible until i saw your DIY videos. Thank you
Thanks for the videos. I just got the beta today from Banks. Do you have any idea why my 24 LZO regens so often? I usually get between 150-180 miles between regens.
What kind of driving do you often do? I'm 350ish -450 between regens on the 23. My driving is a mix of highway and street and I am a casual accelerator, typically.
My commute to work is 25 miles each way, and I do that twice a week. The rest is 8 mile trips 4 days a week. I drive modestly, because I'm still breaking it in. It has 1200 miles on it.
I wanted to ask I have a 23 Sierra LZO and continue to have a coolant smell on the passanger side of the engine compartment. Do you know if thats normal? This is my first diesel so im not to familiar. Ive checked and see no coolant leaks and level has not gone down.
I have same coolant smell took it to dealer they said it’s normal
@@MrTimbertoy has you coolant leavels gone lower?
Does this effect the factory gm warranty in any way?
Only your dealer can answer that. It's just reading data ... but you never know what some peoples dealerships say.
Will running a dash void warranty? In some forums people are saying it does.
I cannot answer that, the only people that make a warranty call are the fine folks at General Motors Corporate.
How would installing a gauge void the warranty?
Would you happen to know why when I put the new update on my micro sd card and insert it into the idash super gauge it, it wont update it it wont work just goes through the motions then gets stuck on rebooting device do not remove sd card and just stays there forever with the bottom arrow that points left blinking red????
I've done everything word for word on banks website.
I do not, however, I will suggest reformatting the memory card, redownloading the file then reloading it into the memory card.then retry
@@DemonWorksyeah it was a brand new card. I had this issue when I first bought it a year ago, so I called banks and have got sent in. Thanks though bud.
I’m getting an error that there is no BPD file when I insert it in to the idash, I’ve tripled checked I received everything from banks and I downloaded it correctly, I have the same files shown on the video. The only thing I can think of is the way I formatted my SD card, on a Mac I just used ms-dos(Fat-32)
i would call banks and ask for technical support @@tylermorine4222
do you think i could run two but instead, a single at the top and bottom of the A-pillar handle?
You would need the proper mounts as well as dual obd 2 cables into a y at the obd, unless banks makes an extended y cable to go gauge to gauge.
This is beyond lame and pointless
Whats funny is that you were the guy whining in the facebook group about not enough performance stuff being posted. And now, here you are.. 🤣😂
@@DemonWorks I have been subscribed to you back when you had less than a 1,000 subs. When you posted good videos. But dual idash pods in a STOCK truck is just pointless.
@@DemonWorkswhats funny is you wore gloves when checking out your truck.
@@DaimlerMiller-kx2qs wow, you hit me hard on that one ! Looks like you've spent time on me ... 😅
@@DemonWorks lame come back my guy. Go take a viagra. It’s sad you are a “Tech” for GM. They must’ve lowered the requirements. No wonder everyone’s trucks come back worse from the dealership
