not true. they can enter the PCM programming and fix it quite easily if they know what they're doing.

any SCT X3 tuner can do this in about 10 minutes without even messing with factory tune as well

I agree about the excessive speed being a bad idea in an SUV...thankfully I dont have to do it too often.

I didnt think it took a chip or tuner...dang lazy stealerships.

not necessarily!

could just be one of the multitude of ASE Certified guys out there who don't know their equipment

You'd be surprised at the number of things a Tech is capable of doing, but they don't have the knowledge to perform it. Like Inst Cluster programming, As Built Data, Speedo correction...etc.

If you ever find a good Tech, maintain a good relationship with him. Worth his weight in gold if you have issues or want to try something with a late model Ford
