Tom, just unsubscribe from the item in the inventory and then re-subscribe. From there, start the game and it should re-download and install the car. I had a similar issue with the Audi.

Thanks, that did it.  Now to find the templates.  Merry Christmas!

Templates for the new cars aren't out yet.

Merry Christmas nevertheless :)

I'd imagine that the real setup guys already know this but I've discovered that at least on a couple of the cars the bump and rebound settings are what I'd call backwards.  As an example, the 650S and M6 (which are the only ones I've messed with) when you hit the (-) button the value increases and when you reach the end of the scale it's the softest setting.  When you hit the (+) button the value decreases and the lowest end of the scale is the hardest setting.  Weird.

Studio 397 said when they released the original GT3 pack that the manufacturers dictated how the settings were presented. Some manufacturers used the"backwards" settings so that's what they had to have in the game.

Interesting, thanks.  Every time I ask a question about this stuff there's someone who has the answer, thankfully.  So my next question would be, where the heck do you find information like that?

it's almost standard industry practice (unwritten) that dampers are would full closed (ie max damping) and then opening them up to the "clicks" that you want. 

but as reference, here's the blurb in the audi manual.  (the lambo is the same)

Yeah, drivers need to be careful while setting up their car.  You just need to keep in mind that you might be softening instead of stiffening.  S397 added the soft and hard words at min / max settings so at least you know which way is for each car.  You just need to determine that for each one of the cars.  I know of the McLaren and Audi
