good question. When I had my 04 I had the PCM reflased. Everyone said that the dealer should put a sticker on the pcm but I never did see one. The only way I know or at least think they did it was the service receipt that they gave me.

Give a Ford dealership your VIN and ask for the current calibrateion
This site.
Also where can you find information regarding the latest reflash version?

Ken,
can't we pull up fords long pcm i.d. code with our flashers and convert it? i been having brain farts latly and can't remember what the term is to convert long to the 4 dig number say smp2
guys also you can look up your old pcm code here http://www.motorcraftservice.com/vdi...&menuIndex1=26 and then find the latest flash 4 dig. i.d code. i know that this helps big time, as i had many without proper stickers come into the shop before i fully retired this year and that list saved my six big time.
GUYS USE caution flash with the wrong code . you will be asking for costly to repair problems
when a dealer updates the ford code.the lists are pulled out and redone by computer right to ford and always reflashed to the latest pcm code out at the time of the service

Called the local Ford dealer and was told that the only way to determine the current PCM calibration on my truck, is to bring it in and have it connected to the computer. At a cost of $120. They also could not or would not tell me the date of the latest PCM release/update. Nice!

The tranny shifting is a bit rough and some others have claimed that a PCM reflash fixed the problem. However, if my PCM verison is up-todate then the reflash is moot. I just do not want to spend my beer money on a wasted computer update.
