Re: computer updates

You can buy an updated chip from the dealer. Simply give them the ECM code off the ecm (white sticker) and the code off the chip itself (pull the cover)

Secondly, try to give people more than an hour to respond... Some of us are at work

Re: computer updates

The computer has a replaceable Mem-Cal as opposed to the later models which are reprogrammable.

Call your local dealer parts department and find out what improvements the updated chip makes... Also consider www.jetchip.com

Re: computer updates

Updated Proms from the dealer are fixes for problems. If you don't have a problem, don't look for one.
