With the New 2019 Ram, Can these updates get done over the air?
Only the UConnect can be updated over the air. Everything else you have to connect to the truck as
moosem mentioned (USB, OBD port, etc.).
That’s a very valid point. That’s why I won’t ask for the HVAC update. I feel like mine performs adequately and I don’t want to make it worse.
I know there was an HVAC update for earlier builds (up to October-ish of 2018 IIRC) after that I think the TSB is for HVAC diagnostics.
That’s exactly what I complained to him about I feel it shifts odd sometimes do you have the number for that update?
TSB 21-005-19 Rev B (Software enhancement for low pedal kick-down bump and coast down shift). I just got this flash yesterday.
My 3-2 shift was noticeable but my 2-1 shifts were abrupt and sometimes harsh. If I was coasting (~5 MPH) and the light turned green I would give it a little gas and it would slam into 1st and go.
I've only put 50 miles on the truck since I got it back yesterday but things seem to be a lot better.
Unfortunately, no. It only states that it was updated with new software.
Interesting that your dealership does not put all of their notes on your receipt/invoice. I wonder if that stuff is entered into an internal database for reference?
My receipt has the technicians notes and specific record of anything done - TSBs, recalls, etc. If there is a software flash it tells me what the original part number it was and the new part number it was "successfully" flashed to.
