    Lol, the orgasm or meltdown will only be accurate for 04B10 step children. I figured I better volunteer, since I'm the one bitching about it all the time ;)

    @OVTune I am currently running the first tune for the M/T and was concerned with the initial install having several "hickup's". Would it be safe to delete all the tune and associated files from my laptop and starting fresh through the download manager or will I need to re-register the dongle ect.?

    How will we receive the update? Do you keep a Db of all your customers and email a new tune file? for those of us who ordered and tuned previously.

    the software from OV will tell you.

    you can estimate that from your build date. but nobody knows how reliable it is. the ones who know for sure, know from OV' s PCMFlash.exe

    I'm not sure there's been another 100% working method to get this version info, is there? a few guys were trying with OBD but not sure what they found.

    make friends, not an ignore list. i suggest you spend time reading OVTune's posts in this and the Alpha thread. then you'll have better questions that users here are interested in answering.

    to get you started, and to also address the above q, the answer is no. the different ecu's, up to this point, have had differences and different limitations. you are arriving when some of that may be changing. we are waiting on a release today or tomorrow that may break open some of that, hopefully.
