Software improvements include: · Improved ambient temperature sensor diagnostics during sunload. · Disable misfire monitor when P0335 (Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit) is present. · Engine oil temperature gauge level recalibration to avoid the misperception of an engine overheating condition.

Repeated filings are grouped only when make, bulletin number, publication date and complete summary agree. Original record numbers are retained. Older publications remain available, and an explicit later version is shown when established. Pre-1994 vehicle associations are separated from default results; an unspecified year does not mean all model years apply.
