Sorry to hear that man. So far it looks like yours and the 2005's are out of luck.

I'm betting they'll come out with something soon. That's a huge market out there.

And what about the 2008s with their different CanBus speed, or whatever it's called?

Afa,

I am still waiting for mine and you tell me this. Now how can I sleep?
It looks like I'll be selling the car, too much complications for adrenalin deprived.
Maybe a GTO 6.0L, will see.

Regards,

Ahmed.

Hey guys.

Don't stress out to much yet. They are aware of the issues at hand and Mike at Diablo is working on something.

Their main concerns so far are:

Not being able to run the calibration update

Not sure whether the PCM will be able to go back to a stock tune once another has been updated. What this means is that the (stock) program on our PCM's may differ to that on the US based PCM's. And being that we upload the new updates top our PCM's from the states, if ever we need to go back to stock it is returning it back to a US based stock tune. This may throw codes or even render the vehicle undrivable.

They have promised to look at it and hope to have something sourced soon....ealy neext week did come up.

I am sure if we keep the pressure on they will come good, otherwise worst case scenario, they will need to refund the $$$ which should also include the shipping.
