You SHOULD only update the firmware to version V2.08.199 or later if you intend to use the EFILive V8 software.
You SHOULD NOT update the firmware to version V2.08.199 or later if you intend to use the EFILive V7.5 software.

Known Limitations:

Limitation #1: When logging DMA PIDs (i.e., PIDs whose names end with "_M" or "_DMA"), if the ignition is switched off for an extended period while data logging but data logging is not terminated, then when the ignition is switched on again the data log automatically continues. However, the DMA PIDs may no longer return valid data.
Workaround: EFILive recommends stopping the data log and restarting the data log when switching off the ignition for extended periods.

Limitation #2: When logging DMA PIDs (i.e., PIDs whose names end with "_M" or "_DMA"), that are specific to a custom operating system such as DSP2 or DSP5 PIDs when running a stock operating system, the values returned by those DMA PIDs will not contain valid information and should be ignored.
Workaround: Ignore unsupported DMA PIDs.

Known Issues:

None.

Getting a script file invalid $0503 randomly when attempting to flash. I thought it was a fluke with an LS1 ECM but today its an E40. Using an older V2. Any ideas?

If I would like to still use the V7.5 software, which version of EFILive and firmware should I download?

The *.obj scripts from the latest V8 software are not compatible with older V2 and V3 firmware.
You cannot mix/match old firmware and new software - or old software and new firmware.
Make sure both your software and firmware is updated to the latest release.
