ETM problem after software update

Post by DonWillson »

The engineering evaluation at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is ongoing and they are aware of the Service Manager Bulletins on the software upgrade.

I've has three cars done with the new software, one 99 and two 2000's.
All run 110% better, smoother and have MUCH better throttle response after the upgrade
