The EFILive software and FlashScan/AutoCal firmware are designed to operate on a wide variety of electronic controllers and on-board vehicle networks. Because those controllers and networks are updated regularly by various manufacturers, the EFILive software and firmware is also updated to remain compatible with any changes and to support any new controllers.

We encourage all EFILive customers to keep their EFILive software up to date. If you have any questions or concerns about upgrading the EFILive software, please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or your EFILive reseller.

Why are there two versions of EFILive's software (V7 and V8)?

We are currently in a transition phase from the old version 7 software to the new version 8 software. The new version 8 software supports the standalone features: BBL (Black Box Logging), BBR (Black Box Reading) and BBF (Black Box Flashing) collectively known as BBx. Version 8 will eventually include new and improved Scan-Tool and Tune-Tool software. However, until then you must continue to use the old version 7 software for pass-through logging and tune file editing. Even if you don't intend to use the BBx features of the version 8 software, you must still download and install it because it contains the FlashScan and AutoCal firmware updates.Those firmware updates are required even if you are using the V7 software exclusively.
