At last I get a break...lol

What's the difference between MY07 & MY08+ ?

Different ECU or programming ?

yes there was an ecm and bcm change to a better unit to fix a few issues they had, it was either in the 07 or 08 update, im thinking it was production update sometime during the my07's


when i tried to get a tune off an 09, it seemed the security system was blocking it read ecm

my06 and 07 use the E77 system MY08 + use a E69 system. which vcm don't support and probably never will, so i'm fed up and am getting a powerchip tune it's unfortunate they don't refine their tunes more as they actually full access to the ECU because they actually use the Bosch ME software.

they put it back to mid last year as they want to focus on dodge support.

Yeah I know. Really sucks.

Let me know what you end up doing monaro and how much it costs.

when i was at che last weekend we pulled out my ECU dale took some photos of the plugs and the barcodes on the top of the ecu.

he going to find out if he can put an MY07 model ecu into my car and tune it that way. i'll let you know how it goes. if the pinout is the same which i'd bet is unlikely otherwise the engine loom might have to be changed or modified.

you can go a piggy back ecu this will allow you to have your fuels and igntion retuned but not the cam timming.

you can go a complete aftermarket ecu but that will cost heaps custom wiring loom tuning and it probably wont run as well.

if Dale can't come through on the ECU i'm going to get a powerchip tune to tie me over till the VCM support is done.
