I do not know if this is a common thing now with services Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18154-getting-car-serviced-today-will-they-flash-it/#findComment-261628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 21y 3m 5d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 10/06/05 12:53 AM Share Posted 10/06/05 12:53 AM I would say YES they will reflash as there is a TSB on all cars must be flashed.It is not a recall, but they said to me that every XR needs to be flashed.

puffnstuff Member 287 Member For: 22y 6m 18d Posted 10/06/05 01:13 AM Share Posted 10/06/05 01:13 AM I agree. She'll get flashed alright. MissT went in for her 30K three weeks ago and the nice man said she was going to get lobotomised fer sure. Something about the overboost problem. whatever ...Can't feel anything different in how she drives but I think my economy is now shot to hell. hovering in the 16 -17 range on fuel average/100k Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18154-getting-car-serviced-today-will-they-flash-it/#findComment-261636 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford_Power Member 798 Member For: 22y 1m 18d Posted 10/06/05 01:13 AM Share Posted 10/06/05 01:13 AM I agree with Zap.When I took my car for my 15k service it was listed on the service sheet to "Flash - PRG C309" (I think that's that right flash version... but it was the overboost flash anyway) even though I hadn't made any mention of any problem with the car.I then told them NOT to flash the PCM as my car did not suffer from overboost. They were reluctant, but they did do what I asked in the end.Ross Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18154-getting-car-serviced-today-will-they-flash-it/#findComment-261637 Share on other sites More sharing options...
minstral Member 115 Member For: 20y 10m 28d Location: Melbourne Posted 10/06/05 01:37 AM Share Posted 10/06/05 01:37 AM Well I just got my 30000.00 done at new oak ford and they installed new valve springs as well. I didnt get the special price for the valve spring install but I did get a good price in the end. They did however flash the ECU and I can tell you my ford has never run better. It has more punch and no bog down at 4000 rpm. Overall very happy Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/18154-getting-car-serviced-today-will-they-flash-it/#findComment-261641 Share on other sites More sharing options...
