Still relativley new to the Quad Stealth II and was wondering when these new updates come out do I need to set my truck back to stock and remove all tuning and then download the updates.

I have an 07.5 LMM with DPF removed.

Thanks

yes, using your quad re-install stock settings. (Do not start your truck after installing stock tune or you will throw codes). Then take your quad to your computer and install new software. Then install it on your truck, simple as that. You want to re-install stock tuning before you update software that way the new software saves your stock setting correctly the next time you install.

That's what I figured.....another question, what happens if you somehow break the quad or it quits working and you lose your stock tune. Anyone ever have this happen?? Where could you get another stock tune??

You would be SOL my friend.lol.j/k. You would have take it in to dealer for a reflash on the ecm then go again.

The first time i updated my quad i didn't save the stock setting. My dealer reflashed it for me for free. They also wanted to check out my exhuast. They're cool with everything!

It all depends on what all you updated. If you just updated the firmware to version 2.43 then you are fine.

Is there any issues with the 2.43? I'm getting a p1448 code, DPF related.
