    Unable to read/tune Pontiac 2009 G8 V6 (LY7)

    I thought with the latest release (2.24.817) the V6 G8 was supported?
    http://www.hptuners.com/products/vcmsuite_vehicles.php

    When I tried to read the ECM/PCM the other day I got several warnings (including a "service dealer warning") and was unable to read. I can get the exact warnings if they're helpful.

    Any thoughts? I tried to search but haven't found much on tuning the V6 G8 around here.

    Car is a stock Pontiac G8 V6

    E-mail support and request access to 2.25. 2.24 will not support it.

    Thanks for the quick response. Seems they shouldn't advertise it on the support page if it doesn't work.
