On my 2006 Corvette, the Engine, Transmission and Brake functions of the Vehicle Diagnostics does not work.
My dealer called an Onstar Tech and was told there is a Nationwide problem with vehicles that have version 6.11 software . Later version 6.15 software is ok.
Systems were downgraded for battery drain problems.
The Onstar Tech told my dealer that GM is working on a version update for the problem. They will send an over the air download when they get the fix and it is approved by the FCC.
