That sound right to you? He showed me the computer that they update with after puting my chassis number on it. They say it has already been done????
On my car it says
CCN Sofware Info
7/05/05 v4.06

Hi C5HEA
after talking to my local dealers service manager, he reckons that your man is pulling your leg and giving you some B.S.
My car was built & registered in Jan 06 and initially came with version (I think 4.06). My dealer says that they tried to update it BEFORE I took delivery of the car (they had rec'd a Chrysler bulletin telling them that they all needed doing) but they were unable to get mine to change at the time.
They then got a upgrade/new version/patch for their "StarScan" (master Chrysler computer) and when my car went back about 1 month later it was upgraded to 4.08. In fairness to my dealer, he did not know what version the CCN was before or after - It was me that told him via the EVIC Easter Egg method.
He did tell me that if you were up here, he'd have a quick look and see what he could do for you - not much use to you when you are in London.
Your dealers either talking pants, or genuinely doesn't know. Please remember that the 300C is still a very low volume car in the UK and the dealers knowledge will be getting built up as he goes along. In quite a few instances, it has been ME telling my dealer (both service & sales) about things that I have found on these forums.
Perhaps talk to your dealer about a chap you know in the North of England who has a 300C CRD and who HAS had his EVIC "flashed", but the dealer had had to get the latest version of StarScan to do it.
Alternatively, if you are in an area where there are other 300C dealers, mabye ask a service manager there for a second opinion.

p.s. pausing the CD is not an issue for me as I don't have any Sat Nav Issues. Must be a pain in the bum if you do.
