GT GAS Part# 40417
UPDATING THE GT GAS
We strongly recommend that users select their vehicle (if exact vehicle is unavailable, then select
a similar one) BEFORE updating with the Update Agent.
Why do I have to update the GT Gas
1. Vehicle manufacturers regularly change the part numbers and other information that the GT Gas needs to know in order
to communicate effectively with your engine computer. If the GT Gas doesn’t have updated information, it may not
work correctly with your vehicle. Bully Dog releases updates when necessary to keep up with any changes that vehicle
manufacturers make and give our customers the best support possible.
2. Our technical support team gathers information about any problems experienced by customers and works with the
engineers to fix them as soon as possible. If these fixes can help other people avoid similar problems, our engineers
include them in the updates that we release for everybody. One of the most important troubleshooting steps we take
when someone encounters a problem is to make sure they have the most recently released software version. This often
immediately fixes the problem!
3. Bully Dog engineers are constantly working to expand the features and vehicles that the GT Gas is able to support. Once a
new vehicle or option is unlocked, they make sure it is available to everyone by including it in the updated software version.
Do I have to update my brand new GT Gas?
Yes, there is no way to know how long your particular GT Gas may have been waiting on the shelf for you.
How often should I update?
Updates are released regularly, so you should check for them at least four times a year. A good rule of thumb is to check
once every three months.
It is also a good idea to update the GT Gas if you have uninstalled the tune for any reason, like taking your vehicle in for
service. This will help you avoid any problems during the reinstall if the engine computer has been flashed and has new
part numbers (this is very common, even for a routine vehicle service).
What is included in updates?
Updated part numbers and other information from vehicle manufacturers, tested fixes for problems customers may
encounter, and any additional features or vehicles that our engineers have unlocked.
How can I tell which software version I currently have?
1. Go to the Main Menu.
2. Choose the Show Settings option. The software version is listed under System Info, next to Version. It is labeled
Software.
How can I use the Update Agent to check for updates?
Start the Update Agent application and connect the Micro SD card to your computer using the card reader that came with
your GT Gas. The Update Agent should automatically recognize the Bully Dog device, check the current software, and let
you know if an update is available.
