One thing I'll add to this (and this is not to detract from anything written above): contact GDE in advance of purchasing their tunes and make sure that they have ones available for non-North American-market CRDs.
There were differences in the mapping between the North American and rest-of-world models to account for differences in emissions standards, equipment, etc. Since getting this wrong could potentially brick the ECU and leave you with a non-running KJ, better safe than sorry.
Good advise, but in the case of the available downloadable free tunes on this forum one should certainly identify using the MPPS cable & software and perfectly match their ECM software ID number, like in my case was a 1037380811, before proceeding to reflash regardless of location.
But you are correct in stating that there may be some non US ECM software ID numbers we have not seen but I bet Yeti has or can at least modify them being he is in Italy....
