Only switch to Map 0 (JB4 off) and back to the map you were on previously.

Hold volume down for 5 seconds, release, click volume down again. MAP 0

Hold volume down for 5 seconds, release, click volume up. LAST MAP or MAP 1 or Doesnt Work Yet for 2014.

The volume control is on the right hand side of the steering wheel.

These are the instructions I have been given, but it hasnt worked for me yet - then again mine is all sorts of wrong.

Works perfectly for me and I have a 2014. You're doing it wrong.

8.x firmware is for cars with the pneumatic wastegate. Any 2014 has the electronic wastgate which should be running an entirely different firmware.

Aren't you the guy that bought a JB4 for the wrong car then complained it wouldn't work?

Yes but Ando @ BMS gave me the correct firmware. . . to make my E-Series purchase work with an F-Series, but then I crossed brown for green when using speaker wires, it works now....where is this firmware you speak of?

Well, if yours works it could either be an X-Drive thing or a 435 versus 335. Both don't seem to make sense. Maybe a sweet video tutorial to update the current one from you??
