What was electronically delivered?

[DGatzby]

Last night while driving, I use the Performance Pages to look at a custom array of gages. They went bye-bye, had to reload the “widgets”. Then a big surprise, the timers screen is entirely different now! Anyone else have this set of data showing now?

Was this that new UConnect upgrade that installed two weeks ago?? Otherwise WTF, did this just hatch a variant? Gamma Redeye strain?



And another thing on this new engine. It DON’T burp! It don’t burp between any gear anytime. I need to ask the dealer if a new flash was installed with the equipment. This is like a much different car now for some reason.

Thanks for the info. I'll have to start mine up today.

I was talking to guy at the NMCA race and he was saying something about updates being sent out. He said on his last pass the car did something funny and was hoping that an update wasn't sent out. His car is tuned by zhtunes

It downloaded a couple of weeks ago. I have driven it a few times including the picture I sent where someone apparently ran a quarter, it was on the old software. Last night it did a blink or something and bam, it mutated in front of me. Glad I have immunity!

The engine is another matter. Either it has been flashed, or some do and don’t burp and it is NOT the computers, which makes no sense. Because that old one was a pig for that stuff.

You really need to take it to the drag strip when the weather cools off

Burp?? Please, detailed explanation of the burp sound.

 

[2017 Redline HC]

Burp?? Please, detailed explanation of the burp sound.

I’m assuming he is referring to the burble sound made when decelerating…..I was wondering the same.

Some of the redeyes have a funny shift or burb. @DRAGRCR has talked about it. Sounds like it hits the rev limiter on the shift so it stutters

That micro second pause between shifts where it seems like all life is lost followed by an immediate pickup in power again.

No, but another item that is different. The former had lost its gurgle and pop on deacceleration. Never occurred to me until I started hearing it again. This one just gurgled a bit on the 2-1 downshift slow at a stop.

Somebody needs to loan me a set of wheels and tires for that, and I’ll gladly do it. I don’t want to get embarrassed. I either have PS4S or a Cup 2. Both steamrollers, but probably not good. I would try the PS4S, but they can be strange in their third year now. The Cup 2’s just don’t like the drag race stuff, the sidewalls want lefts and rights. Then they are a dream.

I was avoiding the “ U connect schedual update time for over a week on RE. Did it last weekend, thought I experienced some low end lag, not confirmed, repeat not confirmed. I will get some time this weekend to see if anything has changed as I will have more time to evaluate. Gatz the bubble is still present with the crackle as from factory On decel when lift off pedal

 

[Slowpoke387]

Mine has the annoying pause between shifts on hard accel. My 2016 HC was butter smooth. I'd gladly welcome a software update.

 

[Magnified]

The chager timers had all of that kind of information from the time I bought mine

 

[stonewall]

I dont think my 2017 ever gets any updates.

 

[Magnified]

Second class citizens. Mine only got 1 in 4 years

We will see when I can press it, but it seems gone. If it is there we will find it up at BIR lapping it. My problem is they are basically rebuilding my right shoulder Thursday. Lifting tires, changing brakes and aggressive steering with both hands will need to wait until next spring.

Someone has to be close to you to hook you up. I have offered many times to people use of my tires. I never took my Daytona to the track let alone the Hellcat without drag radials

 

[Demoniccat]

Ironically going for Mexican food soon, dead serious. Will find out If 1-2 shift hiccup is still present. My guess would be a firm yes. Will test w/track and sport give me couple hours.

 

[Prange]

No updates for me. I guess the puny S/P's don't need one.
