Fill me in... What's a 3.0 Flash ???mombo said:will also be like getting the 3.0 flash from saturn but better
The 3.0 reflash from the dealer. I had the dealer do it to both of my RL's and oh my god it was like driving a different car. But maybe its because my RL's are like ones from the first batch made(I recieved both of them in early june and I live on the west coast).WopOnTour said:Fill me in... What's a 3.0 Flash ???![]()

I'ts what the service tech said other than that I have no idea.WopOnTour said:The term "3.0 Flash" is obviously some term someone here coined
There is no such term used by the dealer or anyone involved with the service programming of your car
It has no basis or refererence to anything related to any PSBs involved with the reflash of the Redline.
(your firmware is determined by a Part Number# and there ARE differences between the 04 and 05 models- so using numbers like 3.0, 3.1, 4.0 like a Windows software package is technically unsound and just muddies the waters)
I would suggest everyone stop using it

Here are the "latest and greatest" calibration part numbers for the Redlines
This number can be verified on your car with a suitably equipped scan toolCode:2004 Model Year- 12597977 2005 Model Year- 12598558

LOLCatshreds said:Exactly! It is the service techs who are using the upgrade numbers 2.0, 2.5 and the latest, 3.0. So if you want to blame somebody for "muddying the waters", you should start there!![]()
Well I didnt wake up this morning thinking I would make up this crap so if you want to talk to my tech( at a saturn dealer )pm me and i'll give you the phone #.WopOnTour said:LOL
I dont think so
No genuine Saturn tech who actually DOES these upgrades would be using this terminology. It just does NOT exist anywhere in Saturn or GM! Are you maybe referring to maybe the version of SSS or TIS?? Irregardless that has nothing to do with the actual SPS file version that's downloaded to your car.
ANY Saturn tech would tell you the same.

You're right, we just make this shit up for your private amusement! Keep LOL smart guy!WopOnTour said:LOL

Let's see...how can I say this in a single poignant sentence of "self-proclaimed wisdom" like almost every one of your 200+ posts??...Catshreds said:You're right, we just make this shit up for your private amusement! Keep LOL smart guy!![]()
Yes! I think you DID make that s**t up, perhaps for YOUR OWN amusement?![]()

I mean, I can try it myself (lol...I will when I get time...damn re-grand opening of my store) but I'd like to know what you guys thought ahead of time. Oh...and where is our port to plug it into....lol, I feel like a retard for asking that. (I know this isn't a programmer, but I really didn't want to start a new thread on this and it sort of applies)
My Saturn Tech also called my last one the version 2.0 upgrade... sorry...WopOnTour said:LOL

***, you are living proof that you can be really intelligent and still act really stupid. Whether you are right or wrong is irrelevant to the FACT, that some owners are being given bogus info regarding updates. I, for one, called my dealer about scheduled service and was told I might want to "wait until version 3.0 is out so I can get it done together". I DID NOT GET THAT FROM THIS WEBSITE or any other. Nor was I bad mouthing techs! Climb down off of your high horse of indignation and talk to us mere mortals with a true sense of trying to help.WopOnTour said:Look
Let's just cut the mass hysteria over this
I do this for a living, for a very long time, and have reprogrammed a few dozen Redlines (how many have YOU done?)
I will no longer to continue to dispute what your saying as it's ludicrous (blame your techs all you want- they're used to it, and can take it)
But I seen someone here propagating this same BS on the SaturnFans Redline forums a few weeks back. (I wont name- names)
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS VERSION 1.0, 2.0, 2.5 or 3.0 OF THE REDLINE SOFTWARE PERIOD!
I'm not calling you liars, all I'm trying to do is HELP YOU to help yourselves when you visit your Saturn store to obtain these services. Many of you have claimed that your "stupid dealer" or "dummy tech" couldn't find the "Version 2.5 upgrade" - well there's a very good reason for that- THERE"S NO SUCH THING!!And all you guys do by going to the dealer with numbers like this, claiming to be "in he know" is cause unneccessary confusion, and contribute to your own dissatisfaction when they say that they "don't know what you're talking about."
Someone here obviously concocted this 1.0-2.0 version terminology, to represent the sequence of updates that exists. All I can tell you is OUR software doesn’t work that way and those numbers are MEANINGLESS.
You dont want to believe me? Fine!! Call it whatever you want, but I refuse to sit idley by and watch people here bad mouth their Saturn techs over some forum concocted b**ls**t, just because some single-sentenced, self-proclaimed forum "guru" (that's never even TOUCHED a TECH2 let alone use one) says "Unite and Go forth to thy dealerships for the version 3.0 update".
Below are some screenshots I took while updating an 04 Redline that show ALL that can be seen during the "pass-through" process during both the "check for updates phase", "reflashing phase" and "post reflash advisement phase".
So if there's a Saturn tech here that does it differently somehow, using a different numbering system, please fill me in!
