Agreed. Based on the error codes, either the FRM3 needs to be flashed or its just not working. When it comes to flashing modules, I always go to an indie shop. I never spent the money to buy a good...

50r??? Went from 275/40/20s to 275/45/20s on all 4. Ended up adding 20mm spacers all the way around because I swore I heard rubbing sounds in the front. Love how the taller tires fill the wheel wells...

Yes, apparently they began installing FRM3s in 2010. Don't know what pins were switched but it had smthing to do with the tail lights methinks. Sry, I can't be more specific.
