Tech II
Does anybody know what features or options can be enabled or disabled with a Tech II tool? Or is there some other tool that can do this? Like I've heard that you can disable the F45 shock system. I'm also wondering if there is a Active Handling option that can be enabled? My '98 has a front mounted EBTCM but did not come with Active Handling which was an option on my late '98 C5. I read through the operators manual for "Ease" PC based Tech II software but did not see anything that might do any of these things.

John,
To my knowledge only the TECH II can turn off F45.

Dumb question but does anyone know if a TechII can handle rear gear changes on a 97A4. I have HPTuners which does it for all 98-04's with the package I have. Does not support all 97's though.

There is a lot more to AH than just toggling a bit in the BCM:

You would obviously need the tc/ah switch wiring, plus all the sensors noted in the article. OTOH, the RPO code shown is the correct option for 1998 model year. It might be worth a try, unless someone can chime in with the definitive answer.
