Geez!!! I got flashed this afternoon!!!

With the latest ECU flash that is supposed to correct the cold start and stumble issue. Says it's been out about a month and they've only done a couple of cars (seems they do it on request only). Which is how most of their TSBs are handled according to the tech, "Only if the customer complains.".

On the paper is called "VERSION 21.02", the tech says its something like V44 or whatever.

So, we'll see.

Cold start and stumble.....BEGONE!!! POOF!

^^ do you have a flat spot near 2800rpm to 3500rpm range when you accelerate a tad faster than normal?

Yes, I do on my 2006. I thought this would have been taken care of by now.

Nope.....pulls all the way to almost redline (that's when I back off). I did it three times. Not as fiery as the old V32 stuff, which I asked about again BTW, but we'll see.
