New Stelvio map--benefits??
- Thread starter John in PA
- Start date
The new mapping # is Drawing # 2229STV8V52 and there is a Drawing # 2229 STV8V52S which the Axone won't download, Says map is for service only. Same thing on the Griso 8V. That map is current map w/ an "S" on the end of the Drawing #
The Importer only asks that you sign up for the subscription, they DO NOT CHARGE the dealer as YET.
The New Mapping should be INCLUDED in Dealer Set-Up, if it comes out before the bike is sold, afterwards it's a warrenty issue, under DRIVEABILITY.
Sorry Pete , I didn't make a note of old firmware (original map) drawing #

I wonder if anyone has talked to the same Piaggio customer representative I talked to. His first name is Harlan. His phone number is U.S. (212) 380-4452. He says he's the interface between customers (like us) and Piaggio. The Piaggio service technician's name is Josh. Harlan says Piaggio (Josh) insists the fuel map update is not a warranty item. According to Josh, the Stelvios come from the factory mapped optimally for both on and off road. If anyone wants the new mapping, there is a cost involved. It's all bullshit. I wish the dealers and Piaggio would get on the same page. All I want is a decent running Stelvio.
That's indeed ridiculous. OTOH, it's also a bit quibbly. New maps come out, they get installed during regular service, and you pay for a total work time that includes the time to hook up the Axone and do the various stuff with it. How long does that actually take? Seems to me it's something a "nice" dealer would do without even making a problem out of it...
Now, reading the latest reviews of the Stelvio and Stelvio NTX, there's talk about lots of improvements by Aprilia engineers. The new cams and tappets are lumped in with those, plus a new exhaust ... and a new map. It sounds confusing, almost as if the 2009 models are quite different from the 2008 ... while we heard nothing of such a series of updates on here???

well changes, but it seems they have learnt and listened, thats good , not? And they changed things that were complaints about.
I have't had my hands on 2 bikes to see it in flesh, but tank must be changed for the airbox I think, and the battery moved, maybe to make place for the abs unit.
The speedo sensor, has same partnumber.

John,
I am picking up a new Stelvio this week and I am interested in getting the map that you had installed. Could you post or PM the dealer's contact info, please?
Thanks, Dewey

I'd like to get that info also, John, if you don't mind. The guzzi shops around me don't have a clue.
I wish I could have met Pete Roper and you guys when you got together in California. Sounds like you got some great service tips and the new fuel map. Is there a post about how the new map is loaded onto the Axone? The shop in Sacramento cannot load the new software. Thanks.
