Still no problems with PCM upgrade.

I know some people have been having issues with the new PCM upgrade however, I have towed heavy(about 17K) several times and have had no issues. I am beginning to think that the dealer's method of installation might contribute to some of these issues like many other things. I am glad I have a great dealer with great techs. Just my 2 cents.

A proficient Tech is key in my opinion. I have one dealer that I deal with for those issues, another dealer (closer) I will have do other stuff.

I still don't have the flash or the updated to that either. I am in no hurry. I can read my vitals so for me I dont view it as critical.

Yup. I have the IQ that will monitor stuff and will read codes. They have one now where you don't need to buy a tuner, just plugs into the port.
