Are you using the instructions from diablosporttuning.com? What part is giving you problems?

You need to use the cable and power cord that is described in the instructions. That will allow you to download the custom tune from the PC to the handheld unit.

When did it say "header error" ? Did you try to double click on it while it was on the desktop or did it say that when you loaded it into the Predator?

It may have been that it didnt like the file name. Did you get the file direct from diablo or did you modify the name in any way ?

does anyone know how to use that lil tuner I just bought one. My car Is acting reallllyy strange. Its a M6 and Ill go 10 miles an hour and have it in neutral and the car is still moving forward...and not even giving me a clue its slowing down. When I drive and come to a stop it idles while slowing down to like 1000+RPMs, and then will correct itself. When I start my car up it ****** stinks like its running rich as hell and have white smoke(vapor) coming out. I dont burn any oil..Some one help me????!!
