Keeping tabs on software releases

[WopOnTour]

In response to the many emails and PMs I have received with respect to ECM software releases for the Redline. Here is a way to check the availability of software for your own car.
Just enter your own cars VIN, select ECM/PCM/VCM> Normal Type

The number at the TOP of the tree will be the initial software from factory, the tree will then branch downwards showing the available updates. The CAL ID and CVN list underneath are the actual file part numbers within the "package", the file "checksum" (CVN) and (sometimes)reasons for the calibration changes.

Please let me reiterate, to date there has only been ONE update for the 2004 Redlines and TWO for the 2005 models (as of June 2 TSB):
2004 models should have: 12597977
2005 models should have: 12601903*

*EDIT: This latest 2005 calibration 12601903 is a releatively new release (June 2, 2005) as per TSB# #05-06-04-038 for MIL ON and DTC P0128 setting falsely.
** These numbers can be confirmed with a suitable scan tool

WOP, you should just change your name to "GOD of Everything You Wish You Knew About Cars", or is there a character limit for that type of thing?

My Part # is for my ECM calibration Software: 12601903.
This is the latest software upgrade for the 2005 Redline. My Vehicle was delivered straight from the factory 4 weeks ago. I ordered this vehicle from the factory and it came with this Calibration.

I can tell you that I haven't experienced any of the problems regarding transmission shifting from 1st to 2nd. So far everything is in working order with 2700 miles on my RL so far. Used Oil Analysis came back Awesome, if anyone would like to know I'll post my results. Our Engine is Built extremely well.

With this calibration I've been getting 29.1 Miles Per Gallon on my 1st road trip, it was 1200 miles round trip. The worse I've experienced was 28.6 MPG. Combination of highway and City driving was an average of 25.5 MPG.

Yuppers
Could someone with a 2005 purchased in the last few weeks please run their VIN through and post their "green-lighted" calibration number? I just would like to confirm this service has been updated to reflect the latest calibration release.
