    Go to https://tis2web.service.gm.com/tis2web and type in the VIN and it will show the latest available calibration(s) for that vehicle.

    yes there are some updates for a car produced in November if it hasn't already been done.

    TCM flash, infotainment, remote start cooled seat update, etc. I don't think there is a new ECM flash though.

    No code
    I was considering bringing the car in for the latest ECM update if any where available or necessary. After using the service link provided by Yonson I have discovered several updates are available.

    We update every car we work on before we calibrate it. Especially the cars equipped with 8 speed auto's. GM has several updates for 2014-2015 and most of 2016.

    What does it take to update the GM calibrations, other than going to Stealership and getting raked over the coals, etc.?
    Thx

    All you need (besides a laptop and internet connection) is a compatible J2534 tool and an active TIS subscription. They offer multiple different subscriptions ranging from 2-3 days, monthly, and yearly depending on how often you plan on using it.

    It looks like $1395 is the lowest package needed to do programming. I'm I assuming correctly? Any recommendation for a J2534?
    Thx

    SPS is what you need for programming, you can get the 2 day license for $55. I use a Cardaq or McS1.

    Awesome. Thanks! A question regarding flash/OE Warranty, etc.
    If OEM warranty is a concern, and a tune voids said warranty, is there a flag set in the ECM making this apparent? Is there any way for it to be traced if flashed back to stock tune?
    Thx
