Edge juice with attitude

I have a quick question about the Edge juice with attitude. I bought 2003 F-250 CC 4x4 with a 6.0, the truck came with the tuner unplugged. I hooked it up and it ran great. Recently I noticed I have been losing gallons of engine coolant. I haven't seen any leaks or white smoke from the exhaust. The truck hasn't given me any problems besides this. I know it might be something with the EGR. That's why I'm going to take it to the dealer. My question is when I disconnect the Edge Juice with the Attitude from the PCM, do I need to perform a KAM (keep-alive-memory) reset & VGT learn procedure before I bring it to the dealer? Basically do I need to turn it back to stock? or will just removing the Edge system return it back to stock? While at the dealer I want to get the newest flash updates for my truck. I will not be reinstalling the Edge system again.
Thanks

Since you're not going to reinstall the Edge, it doesn't matter if you flash it back to stock or not. When the dealer re-flashes the PCM, it will overwrite the Edge tune.

However, if you want to sell the Edge, you MUST flash is back to stock or the new owner won't be able to use it (it will be VIN locked) without sending it to Edge (or PHP) to get it unlocked ($75 as I recall).

Technically speaking I don't really think what the Edge modules(or any modules for that matter) do could remotely be called tuning at all. Sidebar and doesn't really help the OP out(sorry OP), but I've just seen a lot of issues come about, because of those modules or happen while people have had those modules.

Tex - you could be (and probably are right) about the Edge Juice. I need to stop playing around in the diesel area.

OP - here's a link to the manual (in case you don't have one): http://www.edgeproducts.com/product_...manual-279.pdf

I did see this in the manual but it might be a generic statement in all of Edge's manuals.

I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to imply that what you said was bad advice. That was my bad. That is the typical statement on all products not just Edge. Just change a few words and the company name and that pretty much sums them all up.

It doesn't ever hurt to go through all the motions when one is not sure and those motions don't hurt anything. All that it takes up is time.

However, unlike their gas versions, the juice modules(both platinum and regular) are hooked up into wiring harnesses in the engine bay. You don't have something like a regular tuner that you would think of.
