It will be an L77. Have you gone for a cruise on an open highway/freeway yet?

Yep, that should do it.
My Redline does it up and down the Calder, don't need to watch the screen display, there's a slight change in the exhaust note.
Its a stock ute exhaust.
It sounds as though yours isn't working.

Any idea who i would take it to or if someone could test it? if its just deactivated then is reactivating it a cheap easy fix by the press of a button would you know?

Likely turned off at the main (checkbox) so yeah easy to tick that box again. however some idiots disable by zeroing out tables and changing parameters in which vase you need to reflash the stock tune or something like it.
Cost is same if going back to stock or tuner has AFM performance flash available. Can also do that remotely, search OzTrack.

Holden minimum $500. EFI tuner same but from then on you have a licenced “seat” so future tweaks or tunes are marginal.
Hardly any auto elec. would have the expertise.

Can you bring it to Sunbury?
I have a Tech II, we can scan it and find out if its been messed with, or it might be something simple.
