Important information
New ECM Support: E83 (Service #12636386)
We have added the ability to read and flash this ECM, however, no calibration files have been provided in this beta release, we are just looking for stock tunes to be Emailed in.
The E83 is currently used on the following US vehicles: (there maybe other European / Asian Chevrolet branded markets also using this ECM)

  • 2011-2012 Chev Cruze 1.8L (LUW)
  • 2009-2011 Chev Aveo 1.6L (LXV)
  • 2009-2010 Pontiac G3 1.6L (LXV)
  • We also expect the new 2012 Chevrolet Sonic to use the E83.

Bosch gas ECM read/flash:
This beta also gives users the ability to read and flash the Bosch E55, E69 & E77 ECM's. It is important to understand that EFILive is not actively working on providing a full tuning solution for these ECM's. We have however had a number of customers request that we allow the ECM's to be read and flashed using V8 (V2 or Autocal) as they are using tuning packages from Europe that allow them to save files in open .bin formats. All they wanted was a way to read/flash the ECM's.
There is no stream option for these and it will cost you $99 per vehicle. There has not been extensive on vehicle testing for these ECM's, hence, it's beta.

Script Files
Script files have been updated. The latest script files must be copied to FlashScan/AutoCal devices to maintain compatibility with the latest V2.07.21 firmware.

Known Issues:
Issue #1
Attempting to read a CMB/CMC controller using standalone reading (BBR) when no vehicle is connected to FlashScan/AutoCal may cause FlashScan/AutoCal to hang. In that case you should power cycle FlashScan/AutoCal to regain control.

  • Added BEN factors when using dyno lambda serial wide band PIDs:
    - CALC.BEN_DYNO Base Efficiency Numerator 1 - Dyno.
    - CALC.BEN_DYNO_B Base Efficiency Numerator 1 - Dyno LS2 style.
    - CALC.BEN_DYNO_E38 Base Efficiency Numerator 1 - Dyno E38 style.
    - CALC.BEN_DYNO_E67 Base Efficiency Numerator 1 - Dyno E67 style.
  • Fixed definition of PID GM.CASERL.
  • Fixed phantom DTC P2911 showing up in V7.5 Scan Tool.
  • Fixed address error for E38, table B1848 in OS 12633056 & 22633056.
  • Fixed address errors for table B1848 in E37 12628330, 12617248 and E67 12628999, 12635947.
  • Added two more limiting tables, E2536 & E2567 for Cummins.
  • The blue registration card "License Type" descriptions now correctly match the V7.5 licensing options in the "Register EFILive" Window.
  • Lowered H0101 hard-limit by 1% to prevent extremely high values from causing the PCM to fail.
  • Added three new states for the GM.TCCMODE PID: "Slew Releasing", "Slew Applying" and "No Change".
  • Removed FRPADES and FRPACOM from the V8 E35A (LBZ) and E35B (LMM) definitions.
  • Fixed V7.5 EFILive Firmware Programmer to correctly recognize the difference between V2.04.xx and V2.05.xx boot block versions.
  • Fixed out of range speedo calibrations not being detected reliably.
  • Fixed problem that caused calibrations (tagged in red) such as the VATs patch for E37 to not be visible for some users. I.e. those who are using FlashScan devices purchased new in the past few months.
  • Fixed LS1 speedo calibration H0104 showing as out of range when it was not.
  • Fixed menu option Edit->Copy for export to V8 so that it copies DMA PIDs correctly.
  • Added ftlb units to GM.TRQENG_C, Added psi units to GM.TFFFP
  • Fixed floating point error when displaying 3D surface maps "end-on", i.e. at rotations and elevations of multiples of 90 degrees.
  • Fixed Allison 6 speed H0102 speedo defintion for cal levels: 8P6 and 8P7.
  • Added thresholds for P2101 for E37, E38 and E67
  • Added Low Oil Pressure warning controls for E37, E38 and E67
  • Added new E38 OS's 12647991 (2012 Vette) & 12649046 (2012 Camaro).

  • Added support for new Cummins 5.9 OS: 11352408
  • Fixed buffer overflow in *.blx trace routines. The buffer overflow caused multiple, random and most times seemingly unrelated failures during subsequent read and/or flash attempts.
  • Fixed P12 2MB cal-flash failure.
  • Added support for new E67 OS 12635457 (2012 ZR1 Corvette and 2012 CTS-V).
  • CMB updates add D0511, Injection Pulse Limiter Control.

V8.2.1 Build 166 (Aug 04, 2011)

  • Fixed user supplied unlock key being ignored.

  • Allow copy/paste of PID lists from V7 to V8.
  • Fixed LBZ/LMM V8 full-flash.
  • Fixed $0322 error when flashing some controllers.
  • Device settings are now automatically read from the connected/active device when opening Device Settings page in V8 EFILive Scan and Tune.

    • When you use the Tune [Config] button it automatically goes to the [Tune Tool] item in the tree view.

  • There are two new right-click options in the blue sections of the BBx window. They are:
