The dealer can hook up a code reader and as long as they don't flash the pcm it won't mess up my tunes correct?

That is correct. The problem is the tech routinely encounters situations where a software update will fix certain situations and may flash out of habit. Make certain they know not to write and only to read.

Great thanks. I did end up going to the dealer yesterday and made sure they didn't flash it. They hooked up the reader and took it for a ride and found nothing. Said it was fine. Unfortunatley, it cost me $125. Worth it for piece is mind knowing my turbo isn't damaged.

Thanks again.
