    I got my truck tuned. Didn’t drive it yet. I didn’t realize I had to clear learn values until after I did it. Can I do it now? What will happen if I don’t?

    Thanks

    You don’t have to do it. I never have. You only need to if you are having issues after flashing. You can do it any time but be aware if you do it, you need to idle 10 minutes and may get some strange behavior for the first 100 miles while it is initializing

    What's the difference between 04B40-MT and 04B41-MT? i'm going back to 1.05.1. I didn't like 2.0 all that much :crazy:

    The new 2.0 or the beta 2.0? I haven’t heard of anyone that dislikes the new release...

    Pretty sure that not liking 2.0 is sacrilegious

    Means your dongle isn't plugged in and/or your guardant dongle drivers aren't installed.

    Pretty much what the error describes

    i think it was because i put PCM flash utility and not P5 flash utility.

    gonna give 2.0 another shot.

    So after I open the "P5flash" like the instructions say, the "flash it" button and all the others in that row are not "on" so I cant click anything. Any tips?

    Okay, so I figured out I have to PcmUtility, not the p5flash, however it says there is a new version 1.2 of PCM, did you guys download that? It takes me to some russian site, kind of fishy maybe.

    You don’t need the new version. You can use what you’ve got

    I went ahead tried first with p5-can and it seems to have flashed, it said “flash successful” after loading for a minute or two. Thanks again for all the help, not doing this in a year or so has really made me rusty. I’ll post up my thoughts after I take it for a drive!
