    Going old school on a 1987 B350. I have questions

    Seized Engine

    I had the engine in my 2014 Outdoorsman with 5.7 replaced under extended warranty. The dealer got $2,800 US for the labor. The engine I received was used with 90k miles on it, my original engine had 104k on it when it went. The used engine came with a 2 yr unlimited mileage warranty.

    How do you mean the files are destroyed after unpacking? FYI, the 17.xx.xx files will be different from the earlier files. Instead of 1 or 2 files, there will be several. Same with the 18.xx.xx update.

    Which firmware file did you use? My VP3-MX is very close in serial number to yours, mine is 68224534AC I'm having a ***** of a time finding the correct 17.*** update to get mine past 16.13.13 so I can get my navigation activated. Thanks in advance!!!

    I'm having trouble updating my RA3/VP3 MX past 16.13.13. I've tried every 17.11.07 and 17.43.01 update for the 2013 and 2014 RA3 units with no luck. I saw member "glockrocket17" posted about his CA unit updating ok and his model number is very close to mine. Hope he sees my post and can help...
