    seems like a great way to brick an ecu, by not putting the MY in the file name so someone doesn’t load the wrong file :rolleyes:

    It does a compatibility check with the file and your ecu. You can click the wrong one and it will say it’s incompatible with your ecu and not let you apply it. I did it when flashing mine.

    You can't permanently brick it anyway. You can always remove the ECM from the truck and do a bench flash.

    Watch this entire video, you will get everything and understand everything better. All mat sent me is 2.0 cuz every other tune would be a downgrade. Handheld gets everything that flash kit gets and more.

    Wasn’t 04B04 a prerequisite for the 2.0 beta tunes?

    :hattip: Thanks!

    I has been quite a lot. The TSB tune improved so much of the driving experience and being about to monitor the systems and change settings for free is killer.

    :cheers:
