recalls

Took my 2004 f-250 psd 6.0 in for warranty work and they called me and said i had 3 recalls they were going to fix
1 reflash
2-wire harness
3-exhaust back pressure sensor
has any one had the reflash done recently just wondering if it is a good or bad thing.
Thanks Tony

I suggest that before you post somthing that has been posted 1000 other times, you research before you start a new thread..Notice all this recall B.S. and 'problems' are pissing off people, and members start to use this website less, like i have and like many others had.

Just my .$02

I had on my 2004, ended up making things worse, but a lot can change within 1.5 years of PCM programming. I no longer have the 04, now its the sweeeeet 2005, never letting the dealer touch her again.

I took mine in for the recall and they put the latest flash on it. It ran fine before I took it in. It runs even better now. I got 12.5 to 13 mpg towing my 5th wheel to the outer banks it never did better than 10 before on same trip. Tow haul works better too doesnt downshift so hard on decell and hitting the brakes.
I was impressed with the improvement.

I had mine done recently .
It seems like the engine idles louder now and it take a second or so longer to spool up , but I'm getting better gas mileage according to the overhead MPG gauge . I haven't figured out the actual mpg yet .
