Default 997.1 ECU 'Firmware" upgrade??

I am from Mumbai, INDIA.

I have a 997.1 Turbo TT on which i upgraded and installed a 68mm VTG Turbo.

During the process of upload the tune file, i was told that the "firmware" of the ECU is "old" and that I would need to get it updated with the dealer.

The dealer here says, that there isn't any such thing needed to be done.

As of now I cannot use the car as it is running very lean.

Has anyone encountered this kind of a problem? Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like your dealer is not the brightest? The latest version I am aware of is ver. B742 for your DME.

They should charge you very little to upload the latest version with their PIWIS Software/Tool for you.

Good luck!

Thank you therock88. Much appreciated... I will go to the Dealer and I will personally operate the PIWIS and see it through. Another helpful angel has sent me screenshots of the PIWIS where and how I have to go and do the needful. Thanks again.

Finally got the ECU flashed from the dealer here in Mumbai. The DME (CAN) Software version now reads as 00419300B740.. Thank you the rock88 again. Cheers
