You have to have a GM tech subscription and a GDS 2 or similar tool to get the update. I'm using a Mongoose Pro. It is VIN specific the best I can tell.

Shouldn't be a charge if you are having a problem. The problem the update fixes has to do with the GPS timing. You lose 2 or 3 seconds on a lap. Ex. You do a 2:15 lap and it shows as. 2:12.
